RMT Welcomes Tube Bosses Agreement To Remove Time Limit On Reimbursement Costs Of Spectacles

We note the correspondence from the company following the discussion at the recent meeting of London Underground Ltd’s Company Council. We welcome LUL’s agreement to remove the 2-year limit on payment of reimbursements, but are disappointed that the company refuses to reimburse staff who require two sets of different prescription spectacles for more than one set.

We instruct the General Secretary to reply to LUL in line with this stance and to seek a joint approach with ASLEF on this issue.

London Transport Regional Council and branches to be advised.
