Strikes due to start this Sunday (03 May) by ABM workers at London Stansted Airport have been suspended.

 The 100 Unite members, who look after passengers with disabilities, were set to walk out until 6 May in a dispute around pay and increasing workloads. This would have caused delays to flights, as it would take longer to board travellers who use the service.

However, following negotiations this has been called off to allow the workers to be consulted on a pay deal.

Unite regional officer Steve Edwards said: "After talks, we have suspended upcoming industrial action to allow members to have their say and vote on a deal."
