Baggage handlers, cleaners and refuelling workers at Manchester Airport have voted to take strike action, the U.K.'s biggest labor union said Thursday.

Unite said 300 members employed by Swissport, Rentokil Initial PLC (RTO.LN) and ASAI, which provides refueling services for Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSA), took part in separate ballots and voted in favor of striking.

Unite is seeking an urgent meeting with Swissport management in an attempt to settle the dispute, which involves pay deals, and avoid industrial action. Further talks are planned with Rentokil Initial on Friday and ASIG on Monday ahead of the August Bank Holiday weekend.
