RMT has called strikes on London Underground for 1 and 3 March. These strikes will be the first time RMT’s entire LU membership - which includes workers in all functions: drivers, station staff, fleet and engineering workers, signallers, service controllers, and others – has struck together since 2015.
RMT members on London Underground have voted to take industrial action to defend staffing levels and terms and conditions, including pension arrangements.
RMT has called strikes in its dispute to stop the consolidation of train operator grades. LU wants to merge the Night Tube duties, currently worked by a dedicated grade of driver, into the full-time rosters, offering full-time drivers a shift supplement to work them.
RMT has again announced strikes over Night Tube “grade consolidation”, as management are intent on destroying work/life balance and bumping up dangerous, fatigue inducing shift patterns in order to save themselves some cash.
A new video on Yammer from Director of Customer Operations Nick Dent, the top boss for stations and trains, reminds us that the "four key areas" LU is looking at for ways to save money (i.e., make cuts) are "vacancies and recruitment", "our ways of working", "enhanced use of technology", and "a review of our people policies".
