July 28th, 2009Posted by Judith Townend in Editors' pick, Job losses, Jobs
Earlier this afternoon the National Union of Journalists announced that strike action will no longer take place at Trinity Mirror’s Birmingham-based titles after the NUJ chapels ’secured an agreement for no compulsory redundancies’.
Twenty-four hour industrial action had originally been planned to take place on Thursday.
Background:
NUJ members at the titles had balloted for action earlier this month, following the announcement of job cuts and closure of weekly titles.
Trinity Mirror responded to a vote of no confidence in the TM management, via a statement, accusing the NUJ of undermining efforts for the two parties to work together.
