A worker has been sacked at a Nottinghamshire power station where staff have staged an unofficial strike.

Up to 700 workers walked out of Staythorpe Power Station two days ago, over claims two Spanish employees had breached scaffolding safety guidelines.

Following a health and safety investigation, site contractor Alstom said one employee was potentially at fault and no longer worked there.

Strikers are expected to vote later on whether to return to work.

A second worker has been cleared of any wrongdoing.

Alstom said it was disappointed with the unofficial action and is urging staff to return to work and use agreed channels in future to voice any grievances.
