 Four walk-outs have taken place |
Industrial action at a Sainsbury's depot that supplies produce across the north of England has ended after workers accepted a new pay deal. Members of the Usdaw union at the warehouse in Merseyside, voted by 426 to 218 to accept a deal increasing pay from �5.75 to �7.60 an hour.
Up to 750 workers have staged four strikes over the past two months after rejecting previous offers.
Usdaw said a deal was always possible through "continued dialogue".
The increase is linked to "increased productivity" at the warehouse in Haydock, the union said.
Usdaw national officer Joanne McGuinness said: "This has been a long and complex pay negotiation, but we have always maintained that a deal could be reached.
"The workers have voted to accept a deal that offers the incentive of further increases linked to productivity."
