Industrial Relations: London Underground

Submitted by Janine on 31 January, 2012 - 16:05

RMT General Grades Committee decision:

We note the correspondence from London Underground inviting us to discuss Professor Goodman’s report on Industrial Relations. We further note that we are currently seeking views and comments from our Regional Organiser, branches and representatives about this report.

We are of course willing to discuss improving industrial relations on London Underground, and will consider London Underground’s invitation once we have received and discussed the responses we have sought.

RMT Defends London Underground Staffing Levels

Submitted by Janine on 31 January, 2012 - 16:02

RMT General Grades Committee decision:

We note the resolution from our London Transport Regional Council and share its determination to protect members’ jobs and London Underground staffing levels. London Underground has already cut staffing levels to dangerously low levels, and should be considering increasing rather than further cutting them.

We instruct the General Secretary to ensure that the points outlined in the resolution have been raised with London Underground, and to place a report in front of us of the company’s response.

Olympics Update

Submitted by Janine on 31 January, 2012 - 16:00

RMT General Grades Committee decision:

We note the response from ASLEF to our letter, and are pleased that ASLEF agrees to seek a joint approach to achieving the best possible offer from London Underground for Olympic working. We instruct the General Secretary to explore the possibility of a joint meeting with ASLEF, TSSA and Unite to pursue this.
