Members of the trade union GMB who work at courier organisation DHL FastTrack have voted to accept a two-year pay deal.

The deal will award GMB members at DHL FastTrack a 10% pay increase, spread over a two-year period.

The deal also reduces working hours to an average of 45 hours per week, and increases allowances in excess of 27% for time and distance-based work.

GMB members voted to accept the pay deal following a ballot on negotiations held in March 2019.

Steve Garelick, regional organiser at GMB, said: “This is an improvement for members working to help the automotive industry UK-wide, who make the effort behind the scenes to promote new car sales, as well as give valuable ancillary backup.

“We hope others will follow DHL FastTrack’s example in uncertain times.”
