Unison said staff including school janitors and cleaners in 24 out of Scotland’s 32 council areas had voted for strike action.
Workers were due a pay rise in April and have also been offered an additional increase dependent on salary from January 2024 for all local government workers.
Also impacted were: East Renfrewshire, Fife, Glasgow City, Highland, Inverclyde, Moray, North Ayrshire, Orkney Islands, Perth & Kinross, Renfrewshire, Shetland Islands, South Ayrshire, South Lanarkshire, Stirling, and West Dunbartonshire. “The union will do everything possible to get back around the table with Cosla to resolve this dispute.
Unison Scotland local government committee chair, Mark Ferguson, said: “School staff across Scottish local government have voted to strike in unprecedented numbers. “Unison remains committed to dialogue and hopes a satisfactory resolution can be found before staff are forced to take industrial action.”
