A strike among more than 130 workers at Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen Hospitals has ended after workers won their covid bonus.
Porters, cleaners and caterers had taken 19 days of industrial action in their fight for the one off payment that they had missed out on due to outsourcing.
An offer from the trust received by workers on Monday pledged to pay the lump sum.
GMB members voted last night to accept the offer.
Kerry Nash, GMB Senior Organiser, said:
“Our members have stuck together to fight for what they rightly deserve, receiving the payment for them was about respecting their roles and the contributions they made to support patient care.
"All health workers who put their lives on the line during the pandemic deserve this payment and now, thankfully, our members will get it too.”
