Olympics payments for all drivers and trainee drivers

At an Olympics Implementation meeting today, RMT Trains Functional reps got an assurance from London Underground management that all drivers who are in the grade on the 26th of July 2012 will be paid the £500 bonus and £20 a day attendance allowance regardless of duties worked.

Any driver still in training and not passed out by the 26th of July will still get the £500 payment. The payment, however will not appear in the August 8th pay packet, but will be in September’s pay.
