RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2025 - LONDON UNDERGROUND (LUL/0001)
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. Talks with the Company took place on Wednesday 28th May but no pay offer was forthcoming. LUL also stated that a reduction in the working week is not on the table, there is no progress on the extension of Priv travel and no proposal regarding converting any banded salary range into a spot salary.

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.
