Unite members at Centrica’s gas terminal are on strike in Barrow in protest at the three per cent pay rise offered by maintenance firm RBG.
Unite members are demanding the 5.5% deal for sites covered by the National Agreement for the Engineering Construction Industry.
Barrow gas terminal is not currently part of the agreement.
The 21 members voted on Thursday to take industrial action and they are supported by 19 members from other sites.
Senior management from RBG travelled to the site on Thursday to initiate discussions with union representatives. A spokeswoman for RBG said: “Members of the senior management team met with union members on Thursday afternoon but it was decided they would definitely go on strike from Friday".
