A dispute between CCTV workers and a Glasgow City Council arms-length organisation has ended after the employees secured an "acceptable" pay deal.

The 19 staff members are employed by Community Safety Glasgow, and took 12 days of strike action over the employer's failure to pay shift allowances.

On Thursday, the Unison union said the workers had accepted a new pay structure, to be implemented later in the year, which will see the workers pay rise by 24%.

In the meantime, the workers will receive an interim shift payment of £4000 per year, backdated to January.

A Unison spokesman said: "Securing a permanent pay rise of 24% shows how badly these workers have been treated in the past.

"The failure by Glasgow City Council to properly co-ordinate pay and grading across its ALEOs under the so-called 'Glasgow City Council Family' was a root cause of the years of pay discrimination endured by these workers.

"In the current climate of local government funding cuts, the workers have won important concessions by taking solid, regular strike action."
