TO ALL RMT LUL TRAIN OPERATORS

Dear RMT Member,

DEFENDING JOBS, PENSIONS & AGREEMENTS - LONDON UNDERGROUND

The Union has now received correspondence from LUL in response to a dispute resolution meeting with LUL Directors, that took place on 28th March. The letter covers several important issues:

Trains Modernisation

Dear Colleagues,

DEFENDING JOBS, PENSIONS & AGREEMENTS - LONDON UNDERGROUND (LUL/14/2)

Further to my previous Circular (IR/072/24, 1st March 2024), the anti-trade union laws mean each ballot mandate only lasts for 6 months so another ballot is now due to keep our action live. Ballot papers were posted on Thursday 28th March so should be arriving in the post this week. The ballot closes on Thursday 25th April.

Dear RMT Member,

DEFENDING JOBS, PENSIONS & AGREEMENTS – LONDON UNDERGROUND

All London Underground members are commended for maintaining a strong and positive mandate for industrial action throughout this long-running dispute. The anti-trade union laws mean each ballot mandate only lasts for 6 months so another ballot is now due to keep our action live. Your ballot paper will be posted on Thursday 28th March so please look out for it arriving in the post next week. The ballot closes on Thursday 25th April.

Dear RMT Member

Defending Jobs, Pensions & Agreements – London Underground

BALLOT PAPERS OUT TODAY

The current industrial action mandate in this dispute will expire in November and therefore it is now necessary to re-ballot you and your colleagues for a historic fifth time in this dispute.

Strike action on London Underground has been suspended following significant progress made by RMT negotiators and London Underground Limited (LUL) representatives.

Planned strike action by over 3,000 members on LU stations on Wednesday 4 and Friday 6 will now not go ahead.

Following talks at ACAS, RMT has managed to save key jobs, prevent detrimental changes to rosters and secure protection of earnings around grading changes.

Dear RMT Member,

DEFENDING JOBS, PENSIONS & AGREEMENTS – LONDON UNDERGROUND

ALL INDUSTRIAL ACTION IS SUSPENDED

The Union has been in talks with LUL at ACAS and a set of proposals has been received in relation to each area of dispute regarding the Stations Change Proposals. A summary of these items is as follows:
