Hundreds of Border Force officers will go on strike at Heathrow Airport later this month.
They will leave for four days due to changes in working conditions, according to the Public and Commercial Services union.
The union said more than 300 of its members who work in terminals 2, 3, 4 and 5 at the airport will leave from April 29 to May 2.
Around 250 of them will lose their jobs in passport control under the new roster plans, the union says.
PCS general secretary Fran Heathcote said: “Our members are angry and disappointed at having been forced to leave their jobs.
“While not everyone will be affected, the changes will disproportionately hit those who are disabled or have caring responsibilities.
“The Home Office should be doing everything it can to retain experienced, trained staff – not lose them by introducing an unworkable new roster system.”
