Action Short of Strike

Decision from RMT Council of Executives

We are appalled that while London Underground Ltd and
Transport for London are attempting to get rid of nearly
1,000 station staff, they are trying to fill the gaps with
‘Ambassadors’, staff from other, non-operational grades.
We believe that constitutes an untrained, casual workforce
and poses a risk to passenger safety. We note the tragic
death of a passenger during the current rail strike in South
Korea when untrained personnel are being used to substitute
for striking workers.

The ballot result is due on Friday afternoon

DEMO AGAINST JOB CUTS JAN 6th 2014 @ 0830 - OUTSIDE WHITECHAPEL STATION

Please come and support the demo against the job cuts

Bring banners, flags, whistles and hooters.

LUL has now agreed with the RMT that voluntary severance should not be available for staff until after the consultation process has been concluded
They have sent a letter to us that states it will not be currently possible for affected staff to express an interest in or apply for voluntary severance
This follows RMT demands that LUL cannot implement a policy before it has finished consulting on it.
This follows a series of meetings that the RMT have attended with LUL - who incidentally have been telling staff on their intranet site that we had refused to attend.

If anyone is in any doubt how the proposed changes will be bad for all station staff should look at the attached pdf
It clearly demonstrates how exactly different grades will be affected. No one escapes
