Barbour workers vote to accept new pay and conditions
Workers at the Barbour distribution centre in Gateshead have voted to accept new pay and conditions.
About 70 workers had been on a planned four week strike over proposed shift changes.
Re-ballot for Barbour warehouse workers
Workers who have been involved in strike action at the clothing firm Barbour, are to be re-balloted today.
The staff, who work at a distribution warehouse in Gateshead, returned to work last week after agreeing a deal with management.
Barbour says the workers will be re-balloted on an extension to that agreement, specifically in relation to working hours.
The dispute centred on the introduction of a two-shift system at the warehouse.
