2021 British Gas strike information


The 2021 British Gas strike was a labour strike by British Gas workers in the United Kingdom. The workers, represented by the GMB union, opposed British Gas' "fire and rehire" plans, where the company planned mass layoffs of employees, with the goal of ultimately rehiring them on less favourable contracts without having to negotiate over terms.[1][2][3]
