Dublin Bus strike CALLED OFF after breakthrough in pension dispute

The Dublin Bus strike which was scheduled to take place tomorrow has been called off.

SIPTU representatives have said that the the dispute has been prevented in this case due to the union receiving confirmation that Dublin Bus management intend to keep their agreement on pensionable pay.

Union Organiser, John Murphy said: “Where unions and companies make agreements, particularly where the parties are tasked with the delivery of a vital public service, it is vital that they are honoured fully.

"This is particularly the case with public transport, as the impact of any dispute will not only affect the employees and the company involved but also the travelling public who are dependent on their services."

We don't think we'd be able to handle another day of strikes after last year!
