Financial Times journalists have called off a 24-hour strike after receiving a new pension offer from management, reports Mark Sweney of The Guardian.
Sweney writes, “FT staff that are members of the National Union of Journalists have been locked in talks with the management, mediated by Acas, for the last two days.
“The acrimonious battle, which the NUJ has branded a £4m ‘pension robbery‘, has been running since Japanese group Nikkei’s £844m takeover of FT Group last year.
“The strike has been called off while the revised offer is put out to a consultative ballot of FT NUJ members.
“The result of the ballot is expected by Monday 15 February.”
