Imposition of rosters, Neasden traincrew depot

IMPOSITION OF ROSTERS, TRAINS OPERATORS, NEASDEN TRAINCREW DEPOT (METROPOLITAN LINE) - LONDON UNDERGROUND (LUL/8/2)

Further to my previous Circular (IR/017/22, 19th January 2022), Branches are aware that progress has been made on the key issues in this dispute with the following commitments received from the Company:

  • To re-assess the walking time between the book-on point at Neasden and the depot
  • A plan to implement a package of alterations to the signalling system and working timetable that will reduce late running ahead of the September timetable change
  • To work through the issues raised regarding the imbalance of duties with an aim to resolve these issues ahead of the next timetable change in September

This allowed for the previous strike action to be suspended and a further meeting has since taken place with the Company to agree timescales for the above commitments to be carried out. Having noted the views of our Lead Officer and Reps, the National Executive Committee took the decision to suspend the planned industrial action on Thursday 10th and Friday 11th February.

I will of course keep Branches advised of all further developments.

 

Yours sincerely,

Michael Lynch
General Secretary
