Rolls-royce employees are one step closer to going on strike aftertalks with management failed.
Union bosses at the Patchway plant organised the talks with Rolls-Royce chiefs yesterday morning to try to convince the company towithdraw the threat of compulsory redundancies in the CombustionSystems division at the site.
The meeting was deemed a failure by the 14 union representativeswho met seven managers, after RollsRoyce refused to lift the threatof redundancies in 2003.
Ray Bazeley, chairman of the Patchway site unions and convenor forthe AEEU, said he had hoped the company would change its position.
He said that the stalemate after yesterday's two-and-ahalf hourtalks meant unions would have to discuss their next move - withstrike action a possibility.
He said: "The next stage of the process is for our full timeofficers and union representatives to meet up and discuss what actionto take next." Mr Bazeley said that the union would today decide whento meet with Rolls-Royce management next.
