Unite the union said there have been calls for industrial action from its members that work for transportation logistics provider XPO Logistics over missing pensions contributions. The problems were first reported when the company switched payroll provider and now Unite is “calling on executives to instigate a vigorous investigation”, after a lack of action from the group. The problem arose after the company switched payroll providers, and although the XPO is working to resolve the situation, the union wants a cast iron guarantee it will not happen again. “While we are pleased with our progress in resolving this issue, we remain concerned about the impact of these changes on our members,” said Dave Watson, president of Unifor.
