RMT to Ballot H&C Drivers Against Loss of Jobs at Hammersmith

RMT General Grades Committee decision:

That we note the resolution from our Hammersmith & City branch and the report from our Regional Organiser about London Underground’s plan to cut 8 duties from Hammersmith depot, with the loss of 3 substantive posts and a significant increase in anti-social working hours for drivers at Hammersmith.

We therefore instruct the General Secretary to immediately commence a ballot for strikes and action short of strikes of all our driver members at all depots on the Hammersmith & City line; to send a personal letter by post to all those being balloted explaining the issue and the reason for the ballot for action; to arrange for representatives and officers to visit the depots involved to discuss this issue with members; to seek liaison and co-operation with ASLEF on this issue.
