REMINDER - CUT CARBON EMISSIONS, NOT PUBLIC TRANSPORT JOBS - DEMO THURSDAY 4TH NOVEMBER

The UN climate summit COP26 is taking place in Glasgow from 31 October - 12 November. Climate change is increasing the risk of extreme ecological events such as flooding and heatwaves, both in the UK and globally. Climate change is not just an environmental problem, but it also a problem of social and economic justice and should be a key issue for workers and trade unions.

Dear Colleague,

End “Fire and Re-Hire” for Good

1 in 10 workers have experienced “fire and re-hire”, that is they have been told to re-apply for their jobs on worse pay, terms and conditions or face the sack and now unscrupulous employers are using the Covid-19 crisis as a cover for this despicable practice.

Dear Colleague,

TFL PENSION FUND - INDEPENDENT REVIEW

I refer to my previous email, 11th September 2021, as the RMT has been maintaining since the Independent Review of the TfL Pension Fund was announced it is our view, based on actuarial advice, that this final salary pension scheme is well funded and not in a position where our members benefit need to be reduced or their contributions need to increase.

ROP & COS 2021 - TRANSPORT FOR LONDON (TFL/0001/TFL)

Correspondence has been received from TfL which sets out the terms of the funding deal the Company have made with the Government in the Extraordinary Funding and Financing Agreement on 1st June 2021. As part of this agreement TfL have with the government the Company have committed to implementing a pay freeze during the life of the deal except where previous multi-year awards have been collectively agreed with the relevant trade unions.
