RMT Service Control - ACAS Talks Update
Submitted by admin on 26 June, 2012 - 14:31
RMT has put forward our opinion on this document that shows many loopholes for London Underground to not support Service Control staff in the future and allows management to hand pick who goes where.
LU management don't want there to be any transparency in who goes where in Service Control and don't want anything to be done by mutual agreement but for LU to choose and decide everything.
RMT is awaiting to meet with LU again and once again put forward that staff and unions should be fully involved in the mapping, selection and upgrades process and be able to mutually agree how to move forward and not be lead by management.
