Submitted by Janine on 11 May, 2011 - 15:14
RMT General Grades Committee decision:
We note that London Underground has agreed to our request to reinstate uniform cleaning vouchers. We instruct the General Secretary to inform London Underground of our acceptance of this; ask the company to restore the vouchers as soon as possible; and ask the company for a list of outlets which accept the vouchers. The company’s reply is to be placed back in front of us.
We further instruct the General Secretary to advise all London Underground members of:
- our success in achieving the reinstatement of uniform cleaning vouchers
- their entitlement to additional vouchers on request, as well as the booklets issued to them regularly
- their full entitlements regarding tax allowances and how to claim these.
