London Underground scuppers talks on massive job cuts
Submitted by Admin on 11 February, 2009 - 17:10RMT press release, issued today
TALKS ON London Underground’s plan to axe 1,000 jobs failed to clear the first hurdle today after the company refused to agree consultation arrangements.
The company effectively walked away from the table after refusing to discuss the procedure for the consultation, trying instead to steamroller through its own terms of reference – even down to the number of reps from each union.
