Heathrow strikes may cause travel disruption to the UK during King Charles's coronation.

The employees responsible for security at Heathrow airport have planned to take industrial action by participating in a strike for a total of eight days next month because they are not satisfied with their salary.

The Unite union members have planned to take action on several dates including May 4th, 5th, 6th, 9th, 10th, 25th, 26th and 27th, as a continuation of their strikes during Easter period.

According to Unite, the upcoming protest would result in "inevitable interruption and lateness" during a period when individuals were likely to travel to the United Kingdom for King Charles's crowning ceremony.

1,400 security officers engaged in a conflict abstained from work for 10 consecutive days starting from March 31st.

According to Heathrow, they have been in discussions with Unite for several months. They had already suggested a pay raise of 10% since January, but during their most recent conversation, they increased the offer by an extra lump sum of £1,150 this year.

According to Heathrow airport, Unite, a workers' union, declined to present the updated proposal to its members. The conflict revolves around the security personnel stationed in Terminal 5. Heathrow has reported that other Unite members have cast their vote against engaging in any work stoppages.

According to Wayne King, who works as a regional officer for Unite, there will be strikes in the upcoming month which will make things more difficult for people traveling via airports. This issue emerged due to the inflexibility of Heathrow in making an offer that aligns with the expectations of the members of our organization.

Our members have expressed their desire for a significant and lasting salary increase. A small payment made only once will not solve the ongoing financial burdens our members are experiencing day to day.

Sharon Graham, who holds the position of Unite general secretary, has declared that this disagreement is likely to intensify. As a result, a greater number of employees are expected to be polled, and disturbances are anticipated to persist all through the summertime.

The airport representative mentioned that they were successful in maintaining the normal operations of Heathrow airport when the industrial strike by Unite failed in the past ten days. They assured the passengers that they are capable of doing it once again. They emphasized that the flow of travelers to the UK is essential at this crucial period, and they will not let any union cause trouble in accomplishing this significant task.

Unite should pay attention to its members rather than simply trying to make a big splash in the media. A large portion of the employees at Heathrow Airport don't want to go on strike and would prefer to agree to the current proposal.

Every day Unite denies their members the chance to cast their votes on the proposed 10% pay rise along with a lump-sum payment of £1,150, those very members are losing out on their rightful earnings.
