Closing its doors to the public on a Saturday afternoon in August. | :00:52. | :00:58. | |
It's not a message the National Museum Wales would have | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
chosen to send to visitors, but the National Slate Museum in | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
Llanberis was one of three of museum sites which closed this afternoon. | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
Members of the PCS union also walked out at the National History Museum | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
at St Fagans, the Swansea waterfront museum | :01:16. | :01:18. | |

The row is over pay and pension cuts. | :01:25. | :01:32. | |
Most of us here work 36 weekends out of every year and we get the premium | :01:33. | :01:39. | |
rate for doing that, because most people want to be with their | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
families at weekends. The museum are now looking to reduce those premium | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
rates and also cut them away altogether over the next two years. | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
Once they reduce the premium rates, we are looking at a ?1000 pay | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
decrease. Visitors to the | :01:54. | :01:55. | |

National Museum Wales says it's "very disappointed" with the strike | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
and has apologised for any inconvenience caused. | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
It says it has to make difficult decisions during these challenging | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
economic times, but it's mitigating the impact | :02:20. | :02:21. | |
by increasing the basic pay for the lowest paid staff by at least 2% | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
But for members of the PCS union, this isn't enough | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
and industrial action will take place every Saturday and Sunday | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
