Maintenance and operations workers at London Cable Car will strike on Saturday and could take further action for months if a dispute over pay is not resolved.
The Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT) said its members at Doppelmayr Cable Car (DCC) have not received a decent pay offer.
The cable car workers will take strike action every Saturday until February next year if a deal is not reached.
RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said: “The behaviour from Doppelmayr management has been appalling.
"Instead of trying to work with the union to find a resolution, they have sought to ratchet up this dispute believing they can punish RMT members without the union responding.
“Our members work long hours to maintain this unique form of transport in London and yet are being treated with disdain and zero respect.
“That cannot continue which is why they will take strike action every Saturday for six months, unless a negotiated settlement can be found.”
