RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2025 - LONDON UNDERGROUND
Your Regional Organiser and functional reps met with LUL today (Wednesday) to seek an improvement to the current pay and conditions offer. Unfortunately, management refused to make any changes to the current offer.
Dear Colleagues,
INTRODUCTION OF OWFM APP - LONDON UNDERGROUND
The London Transport Regional Council recently submitted the following resolution:
“That this Regional Council notes that the new OWFM App that is to roll out to all LUL Revenue Staff and TfL Enforcement Staff.
That the App includes significantly enhanced data capture, monitoring of staff by GPS and providing of Data to third party companies - that this App is wholly unreasonable and highly intrusive.

Tube union RMT, today announced rolling strike action across the network beginning on Friday 5th September for seven days, with different grades taking industrial action at differing times.
The strikes come after management refused to engage seriously with union demands on pay, fatigue management, extreme shift patterns and a reduction in the working week, as well as failing to honour previous agreements made with staff.

Dear RMT Member,
4-DAY WORKING WEEK, TRAIN OPERATORS - LONDON UNDERGROUND
The referendum has now concluded with members' voting as follows:
Total Votes Cast… 1345
Number Voting 'Yes'… 126
Number Voting 'No'… 1219
The National Executive Committee has noted the resounding result of this referendum to overwhelmingly reject the Company's offer and has congratulated members on their steadfast resolve to defend their terms and conditions.
Let's talk about motions.
Last year a local representative discovered that period products varied not only in availability but also in price on their group. Train operators were being charged double and in one station five times the amount that station staff were for the same products. Responding to this feedback from members, the rep raised the matter and discussed it at their local branch, Piccadilly & District West.
DEFENDING JOBS, PENSIONS & AGREEMENTS - LONDON UNDERGROUND (LUL/14/2)
Further to my previous Circular (IR/341/23, 15th November 2023), the Union has been in discussions with LUL regarding the Company's plans to introduce a trial of the use of iPads by Instructor Operators on LUL Trains.
This matter has been considered by the National Executive Committee and I have written to LUL to reiterate that RMT is opposed to any such trial of this nature and that the Union considers this move to be a step towards imposing Trains Modernisation.

CALCULATION OF HOLIDAY PAY
TRANSPORT FOR LONDON / LONDON UNDERGROUND
Recent discussions have taken place and an offer of agreement was received from TfL and LUL for the payment of overtime and other regular payments in holiday pay.
The National Executive Committee has taken the decision to accept the arrangement for holiday pay and I have advised the Company accordingly. A copy of the agreement is available to view here for TfL and LUL. [attached]
The latest edition of Upfront, the newsletter for Tube train drivers, looks at how RMT will fight LU's plan to increase train operator flexibility and likely cut jobs.
