Every Job Matters Dispute ACAS Report 3

Dear RMT members

Today Friday 31st January ,We attended the 4th day of exploratory talks this week with LUL,called by ACAS . It's clear that now after all this time LUL understand that we will only discuss/consult or negotiate change in LUL for Fit for the Future Stations or for that matter anything else whilst the management are not imposing those same changes at the same time.

We have proof that they have done so by issuing the form HR1 on the union , by activating the severance trawl , by starting E learning on the LUL intranet .By imposing the changes by the back door.

At 1545 management tabled a proposal , which whilst making some progress , still has not met the demand from ourselves and the TSSA to suspend implementation of the proposals whilst we are in consultation.

The meeting has now adjourned until Monday , when we will return to talks with LUL and ACAS.

So the industrial action is on We are strong and united and never more determined to resist these cuts and fight for our members.
