London Underground Pay 2019: RMT responds to latest offer

Dear RMT members,

Today myself and our reps met LUL to discuss pay 2019. The company made the offer as attached.

We immediately responded by saying that the RMT would seek to meet all our reps to discuss the offer. Therefore we cannot formally respond in this update. However, I stated that all pay deals in LUL are RPI linked in the past. Also, any banked rest days can only be taken in line with our agreements.

We still have some way to go in these pay talks.

As soon as our NEC has considered the position there will be a further update.

Thanks,

RMT congratulates members on 3.4% pay rise offer

Subject: RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE – ISS (KAD SECURITY CONTRACT)

That we note the report on file, and that our workplace representative has consulted the members and the Lead Officer recommends acceptance of the offer which constitutes a
3.4% rise in pay across various grades.

We congratulate our members, representatives, DLR Branch, Lead Officer and Ray Shackleton for obtaining this deal.

We instruct the General Secretary to advise the company of our acceptance.

Members to be advised by email & text.

Branch motions on Tube pay offer

Subject: RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2019 – LONDON UNDERGROUND

That we note and adopt the report from our Southern Sub-Committee and subsequent resolutions from our branches:

“This branch notes that, despite numerous meetings with LU over pay/conditions, we are still at an impasse, with the latest offer clearly not meeting RMT’s key demands.
This branch therefore calls on the NEC to immediately organise a ballot of all LU members for industrial action.” - Bakerloo Line Branch
