RMT concerned that Yammer is "being used to bypass trade unionism" by Tube bosses

Along with the London Transport Regional Council; this union is concerned “Yammer” is being used by management to bypass and undermined collective bargaining and trade unionism by their blanket policy of deleting any union material posted there, leading to a one-sided ‘conversation’ in which the bosses can circulate their
propaganda, but we cannot respond.

We instruct the General Secretary to launch a company wide campaign to expose the true nature of yammer and encourage members who want to let management know their views to instead use the unions’ representative structures and industrial action to do that.

Members to be advised by email and text.

Relevant branches and the London Transport Regional Council to be advised.
