Watsons Water staff to strike

About 300 truck drivers and delivery assistants from Watsons Water planned to stage a strike at the Tai Po plant at 8am today - if the No 8 signal was not in force, a Confederation of Trade Unions official said. It would be an extension of the two-day strike staged in July last year, when the company promised workers a list of measures to improve their commission income and workload but failed to deliver, he said.
