H&C drivers to be balloted over breakdown of industrial relations

BREAKDOWN IN INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS, DRIVERS, HAMMERSMITH & CITY LINE – LONDON UNDERGROUND (LUL/14/2)

Further to my previous Circular (IR/092/16, 4th April 2016), the Company was informed of a dispute situation due to a number of issues affecting members on the Hammersmith & City Line including breaches of the attendance at work policy, an overbearing management team, refusal to release reps for meetings and misuse of the disciplinary policy.

This matter has now been considered again by the National Executive Committee, which has taken the decision to commence a ballot of our Train Operator and Instructor Operator members at Hammersmith Depot and Edgware Road Depot for strike action and action short of a strike. I am currently acting in accordance with this decision and will keep you advised of all further developments.
