"As this pay deal, and the hundreds of others negotiated by the union across the country, shows, it is an approach that delivers results."

Unite regional officer John McColl added: "The pay deal secured at Veolia, is another example of why Merseyside workers should join Unite if they want better wages and working conditions."
