Following what was earlier in the dispute described as “a fair and substantial offer” being made to crews, it has been announced that the industrial action at Orkney Ferries is now over.

Crews earlier in the dispute agreed to not work any call-back, not work any overtime, and to work to the job description only.

Union members have now voted to accept the offer, and the industrial action has ended.

Details and reaction in The Orcadian on Thursday.
