Walkout expected to last 10 days

Bus drivers on the Isle of Man will be striking for 10 days from next week. 

Unite the Union has confirmed the action to Manx Radio, following a dispute over pay and contract issues.

It's expected to commence from 21 February. 

In December last year, members voted in favour of industrial action; however, former Infrastructure Minister, Michelle Haywood confirmed the Manx Industrial Relations Service had facilitated talks between the union and the DOI.

Manx Radio has contacted the Department of Infrastructure for comment.
