London Underground - fingered again in unfair dismissal case

It is with boring monotony that LUL are continually caught out at Employment Tribunals for unfairly sacking members of their staff

The latest case is James Lambert, a CSA from Stratford whose heinous crimes were.....to be honest I am not sure.

He was accused of a racial assault on a security guard.
Found not guilty. In court

ACAS Report On Pay & Night Tube and Job Cuts Disputes

Dear RMT members

Most of you will be aware that we have had a number of magnificent ballot results where members in our union in LUL as well as all of the other tube unions have voted overwhelmingly to fight back. We have four current disputes in LUL:

1. Pay and Night tube
2. Every job matters - defending jobs on London Underground
3. M Door safety alarm procedures - Jubilee Line
4. Introduction of Agency trainers - London Underground

Striking is good for the soul - read why here.

Short guide to striking

When does it start?

The strike will start for Station Staff at 18.30 on Wednesday 8th July

What does this mean?

That if your duty starts after this time you do not report for duty until after the strike ends

What if my duty starts before this time?

If you have started your duty before 18.30 you complete that duty as normal.

When does the strike end

The strike ends for Station Staff at 18.29 Thursday 9th July

RMT To Ballot Over Pay & Night Tube

The RMT has declared a dispute with LUL over pay and all-night running and is preparing to ballot for strike action.

An outrageous attempt to drive a coach and horses through existing procedures has been attempted by LUL managers who wish to impose new rosters on staff in the run up to the introduction of night tube operation on 12th September 2015.

The union is also placing the derisory pay offer from London Underground into dispute.
