CRISIS! Coca-Cola faces difficult days in the UK with the right to strikes

The factory workers Coke in Wakefield, which makes popular soft drinks like Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite and Monster, could go on strike over wage concerns, raising fears of a crisis at the company. Rumors of a crisis have been growing over time.

If the strike becomes a reality, union officials predict that the supply of products from the Coca-Cola Europacific Partners could be at risk as workers demand pay rise of 6%.

The advice came from Chris Rawlinson, who warned that a possible strike by workers at the Coca-Cola factory could threaten supplies of Britain's favorite soft drinks this summer.

A Coca-Cola Europacific Partners said it was committed to resolving the dispute through negotiations, while a company spokesman stressed that constructive dialogue was more feasible than industrial action. In this way, the strike could be avoided, although they did not find it easy to resolve the situation.

Another representative of the company indicated that the increase that has been offered is sufficient for workers, within what has been foreseen for similar vacancies in the market. In addition to salary, Coca-Cola informs that it offers other benefits, such as a bonus of 1,000 euros for additional daily costs.

“We have a strong history of supporting colleagues at our Wakefield site, enabling them to develop their skills and careers in a modern, high-tech manufacturing operation where we have invested over £100m in the last five years alone. years", said Coca-Cola.

The workers' reports are justified by the increase in the cost of living in the country. They are feelings of frustration and loss on the part of employees, as they claim that a salary cannot last the entire month. Expectations for the British economy have not been the best with high inflation.
