JUSTICE FOR TUBE CLEANERS - END OUTSOURCING!
DEMONSTRATION, THURSDAY 12 OCTOBER
When: 09:00, Thursday 12 October
Where: City Hall, The Queen's Walk, SE1 2AA
"RMT is deeply concerned about the proposals which in our view could see the elimination of ticket offices across London Overground. Our experience in the past shows that, despite promises to the contrary, the closure of ticket offices leads to the wholesale destafiing of stations with serious consequences for safety and security.
General Secretary Mick Cash said;
"RMT is aware of the incident at Parsons Green this morning and the unions safety reps are awaiting further facts from London Underground. The union is supporting our members at this time.
"The incident shows once again that tube staff are the first responders in emergency situations and the clear need for safety and security to remain the number one priority and for the resources and staffing to be in place to deal with all eventualities."
RMT's Disabled Members' Advisory Committee met for the second time on Wednesday 13 September.
