'Deep concern' | FCA staff threaten industrial action over proposed hybrid working changes

In an open letter to the FCA’s executive committee, union representatives revealed that 93% of members voted in favour of taking action short of a strike, such as refusing to comply with any new attendance threshold, if mandatory office time is increased beyond the current 40%.
