Last week I reported on the strike action to be taken by Total Window Systems and DB Glass (part of the Epwin Group) in Devon.
A reader left a comment stating that there were due to be meetings last Thursday between employees and management at the Epwin Group to try to avoid strike action. Up to press I haven’t heard anything since.

So I’m leaving the floor open to everyone within the Epwin Group to put their point across on here, whether you’re management or those going on strike. I’ll approve all comments (unless they’re liable or offensive). Although I suspect if there are deals being made now, very few will want to comment…but it’s worth a try.
Also, if the strikes are going ahead, is there a date set for this?
>I've heard quite a bit, but unfortunately have been asked to keep it to myself, sucks as would make a pretty decent blog!
>The latest news is DB Glass have settled their dispute. TWS begin strike action on the Monday 12th December. Unbelievably or not the Epwin board and/or local management have made no attempt at all to avoid this strike action this week.
>Mondays strike was well supported with a peaceful and good humoured picket line.
There was some balanced BBC local news coverage which showed the workforce in a good light.
Epwins once again failed to comment.
Police are looking into "alleged" strike breaking by the company.
