Both today, Friday 28th, and on Monday 31st May nearly all of Glasgow’s museums, libraries and sport centres will be closed by industrial action.

The strike involves Unison, Unite, GMB and Bectu unions who have collectively 1,600 members working in over 140 facilities - from Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum to local libraries and pools. According to Unison, ‘Unions at Culture & Sport Glasgow (CSG) are fighting a 10% wage cut for 150 workers, a pay freeze for all other staff and cuts in public holidays and overtime rates’.
