BBC Strike Ballot Enters Second Week
Union members are continuing to vote on a call for strike action in opposition to Delivering Quality First, BBC management's latest cuts programme.
Two thousand job cuts are threatened along with major cuts to key staff terms and conditions which the unions believe will damage programme output countrywide and harm the BBC's worldwide reputation for excellence.
The ballots, which are being run by BECTU, the NUJ and Unite, close at 12 noon on Thursday 24 November.
More members' meetings have taken place this week to discuss the joint union strategy on DQF.
BECTU, the UK union for broadcasting, film, theatre, entertainment, leisure, interactive media and allied sectors, will meet to discuss next steps once the ballot has closed.
