There are 300 Amicus members working for Fujitsu Services in Manchester, out of a total workforce of 1,000 mostly non-union workers. The union has been angered by the treatment of Ian Allinson, senior representative for Amicus at Fujitsu Services, who is facing suspension from Fujitsu.

According to Allinson, Amicus members are due to hold a meeting on Friday to discuss their next step in the action.
