Workers on the Heathrow Group have secured a significant victory, after an RMT campaign against lone work achieved an agreement from management.
Key to this achievement was the decision of the local branch to ballot both station staff and Night Tube drivers for industrial action, showing that when workers stand together and prepare to take action, we can win concessions from our bosses.
See the attached bulletin for more details.
Your RMT negotiating team met today with London Underground and ACAS for further pay talks. London Underground made a revised offer of a two year deal, with RPI+0.2% in both years.
Jubilee line driver Mulu has been put through an unfair and unnecessary disciplinary process following an incident in work.
The attached newsletter explains precisely what happened, why the disciplinary is wrong and what the RMT is preparing to do to defend our member.
An RMT National Executive Committee decision is due imminently so an update will be ready soon.
Please distribute the newsletter in your depot.
