Strikes by London borough of Hounslow traffic wardens and CCTV operators have been called after Unite, the UK’s leading union, secured an improved pay deal.

The workers, who are employed by NSL, voted overwhelmingly to accept a 10 per cent increase from November 2024 plus an additional 5.3 per cent increase from April 2025.

Moped and car drivers will also receive an uplift of 40 pence an hour from April 2025.

All strike action has now been called off.

Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said: “By standing together in their union, NSL’s Hounslow workforce secured this excellent pay deal. Once again, Unite’s total commitment to winning better jobs, pay and conditions is putting money in our members’ pockets.”

Unite regional officer Lui D’Cunha said: “This deal is a prime example of why it pays to be in a union. Workers wanting improved wages and working conditions should join Unite and organise their colleagues to do the same.”
