Your negotiating team met today (3rd April) with London Underground who made us a derisory pay offer of a one-year, RPI only deal, which works out as 2.5% based on the February 2019 figure. This offer was conditional on us removing all other aspects of our pay claim, for example a shorter working week, better work/life balance and improved travel facilities.
The third day of London Underground pay talks took place yesterday (Wednesday 13th March). RMT Regional Organiser, John Leach, attended with reps from the seven Functional Councils RMT has recognition on. The company had previously asked us to remove a number of items from our pay claim before they would make us a financial offer. We refused this request and returned yesterday to continue to engage in meaningful talks with the company. There were discussions about improving staff travel facilities and also around our demand for a 32 hour, 4 day working week.
TFL have written to the RMT Regional Officer John Leach and other unions notifying us "imposition" of TFL pay for 2015. Last year using "pfp" arrangments.
TFL branch has arranged a special branch meeting to discuss this matter on Tuesday 19th January 1600 at the Crown, 108 Blackfriars Road, London, SE1 8HW.
