RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2025 - LONDON UNDERGROUND

RMT continues to press LUL to address our 2025 pay claim. The anniversary date for our pay deal is 1st April, yet management has only now agreed to even met us. The meeting will take place on 28 May, two months after you should have received the pay rise.

RMT will demand that LUL acts urgently to make good on the parts of our previous pay deals that the company has failed to deliver.
