Journalists across the company are to strike from Tuesday, April 16, in the latest round of industrial action over pay. It is expected to cause cancellation and disruption to all STV News bulletins.

STV News bulletins are set to be axed as Glasgow -based staff are set to join colleagues as they walk out for a second time amid an ongoing pay row.

The NUJ chapel has also voted for a third day of action on Wednesday, May 1 to coincide with STV’s annual general meeting, when shareholders will be asked to approve a £664,167 pay package for Simon Pitts, STV chief executive. During the last strike day on March 26, news bulletins and the flagship STV News at Six show were pulled off air.

Another journalist said: “We have been covering cost of living stories for two years, but it's happening to us as well. People look at us and expect us to be well paid, but we're not. By the by the end of the month I have zero pounds left. There is nothing once I’ve paid rent, bills, and council tax and that's before you've got your groceries and everything else.
