Pay Reinstated

Posted in Tubeworker's blog on ,

Drivers all over the network, in both RMT and Aslef, refused to cross RMT station staff picket lines at depots located at stations during the 8-9 January strike.

Others refused to drive on the grounds of safety, arguing that it was unsafe for LU to run trains through unstaffed stations. One such RMT driver on the Bakerloo Line had his pay docked for doing so, but after pursuing a grievance against management, has had it reinstated.

The lesson? Stand your ground!

With unstaffed stations now an almost constant feature of the job, due to LU's staff cuts, all staff should consider the safety implications of this state of affairs.
