Workers at the Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) soft drink plant in Wakefield, UK, are set to strike on June 8 to 22 over unfair wages, Britain’s Unite union said.
According to the union, the CCEP is not paying a fair wage that matches inflation.
CCEP’s wage increase across different grades amounts to an average of 6%.
CCEP recently announced that it generated revenues of over £15 billion combined with an operating profit of £1.85 billion.
According to Unite general secretary Sharon Graham, CCEP's profits are up 37%, and is earning billions but is delivering a "pay cut" to the workers.
Graham added that CCEP’s pay cut when business is booming is nothing short of corporate greed.
Meanwhile, CCEP insists that the pay rises it is offering are competitive within the market.
The CCEP Wakefield plant can produce 360,000 cans per hour and 132,000 bottles per hour.
