Transformation Update

Submitted by Lorna on 8 June, 2018 - 20:27

We are nearing the end of Transformation. This has been a long and stressful process for all of our members who have been involved. Throughout the consultation, management have ignored many of the concerns raised by our reps and members, and have refused to share detailed plans of how things will actually work post-implementation. A number of managers who have been leading Transformation are leaving the company and this has been notable by the differences in consultation between work streams.

Your RMT reps were at ACAS all day today, negotiating with management a deal that would see weekend rest days increased to improve work life balance.

A deal has been reached that will see an extra Saturday rest day put on rosters at Stratford, North Greenwich, and Wembley Park, an improvement from the previous schedules.

In addition a week of talks has been agreed between unions and management on the line, to look at issues with the current schedules and to improve the negotiating process.
