Partial Strike at Hinkley C

Posted: 2nd April 2022

Hundreds of contractors at Hinkley Point C nuclear power plant have downed tools over “concerns” about working arrangements. They were working at the Somerset nuclear power station for engineering firm Bylor before Friday’s walkout. Energy firm EDF, which runs the site, said Bylor was in discussions with workers about resolving the issues. It is understood that the vast majority of the site’s 7,500 staff have not taken part in the walkout. A spokesperson for Bylor said: “Whilst other members of our Bylor team continued to work as normal at Hinkley Point C today, some have chosen to stand down. “This group of workers have expressed concerns about their working arrangements at Hinkley Point C.” BBC 1st April 2022  https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-somerset-60957803
