RATES OF PAY AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2022 - ISS (KAD CONTRACT) (TFL/0001/ISS(DLR))

Following initial pay negotiations with the Company, the Union rejected a 0.9% increase as this obviously falls far short of our members' aspirations. There has not been any improved offer forthcoming and the National Executive Committee has taken the decision to raise the issue of rates of pay and conditions of service on the ISS (DLR) contract with UK management of ISS.

I will keep Branches advised of all further developments.

Yours sincerely,

COVID-19 ABSENCES, UNVACCINATED STAFF PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS - KEOLIS AMEY DOCKLANDS (DLR/5/5)

The following resolution was received from our Docklands Light Railway Branch:

“I raise a motion to oppose the policy of KAD to withhold contractual sick pay from staff who have to self-isolate due to contact with someone with Covid19 and have not been fully vaccinated.”

Your National Executive Committee has considered the resolution and took the following decision: -
