That we note the report from our Lead Officer; that the issues of bullying and maltreatment of our members remains unresolved.

We also note the company has undertaken to review the dismissal of Bro Mahoney, and state here and now that unless Bro Mahoney is re-instated without delay; this union will issue them the notice and commence a ballot of our members for industrial action(s).

London Underground is reviewing the experience of the first two years of Night Tube on stations, and RMT is putting forward key demands to improve Night Tube station staff’s working conditions. We are carrying out this survey to gather evidence in support of these demands, to check that you support them, and to identify other issues that you would like the union to raise. We will only use your responses for these purposes. 

You can have your say by completing this survey.

Subject: DUTIES/SHIFT COVERAGE, BAKERLOO LINE SOUTH GROUP – LONDON UNDERGROUND

This breaching of their own policy and procedure creates undue stress on our members and puts them and the travelling public at risk’ representing a breakdown in trust between the company, their staff and this union.

Central Line East & West Branches and the London Transport Regional Council to be advised.
