Tata Steel UK has initiated legal action against union strikes, expressing concerns about the potential closure of its plant. The company’s move comes amidst heightened tensions with unions, who are urging Tata to negotiate rather than issue threats to cut jobs. Unite has specifically called on Tata to negotiate. The situation has significant implications for the livelihoods of Tata steelworkers and their families, with calls for no irreversible decisions to be made ahead of the upcoming general election. Labour has been urged to intervene in Tata’s plans to close the steelworks, emphasizing the need for continued dialogue to find a resolution.
