Dear RMT Member

RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2025 – LONDON UNDERGROUND

I am writing to advise you that, following the magnificent mandate for industrial action you delivered in the ballot, a meeting was held earlier this week between your negotiating team and national officers.

The unanimous view expressed at the meeting was that, unless London Underground makes a suitable offer to resolve the ongoing pay dispute, then your union should declare its intention to take strike action.

Further to my previous Circular (IR/179/25, 14th May 2025), I advised LUL of the dispute situation over breaches of the 2023 and 2024 agreements and the failure to table a 2025 pay offer.

To: All ABM (LUL Cleaning Contract)

Dear RMT Member,

On 2nd June, your RMT Reps and Lead Officer attended the ABM JNB (Joint Negotiating Body). This is a forum where your Reps can raise matters that affect all divisions with Directors and Senior ABM Management.

Your Reps discussed a number of important issues and I have outlined the outcomes reached at the meeting below.

Problems with getting Contractor Staff Passes renewed

RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2025 - ABM (LU CLEANING CONTRACT) (LUL/0001/ABM)

In line with Union policy, a claim was submitted for a substantial increase in rates of pay and improvements to conditions of service. The Lead Officer has submitted a report, along with correspondence from ABM, stating it is unwilling to discuss our pay claim as members have already received an increase this year in line with the London Living Wage uplift.
