What is a National Executive Committee decision?

This article is an 'executive decision' which has been written by the RMT National Executive Committee. The National Executive is the union's governing body in between AGMs. Its decisions set out what the union will do on a particular issue.

These decisions can often be brief, and may be one of several passed over a period of time. To get a better understanding or find out more information about what the RMT is doing, speak to your rep or attend your branch or Regional Council meeting.

UK Power Networks Services (formerly EDF Powerlink) - Pay

RMT General Grades Committee decision:

We note the report from our Regional Organiser, and that the company’s “full and final offer” is as follows:
5% this year
Year 2: June RPI+0.5%, minimum 1%
Year 3: June RPI+0.5%, minimum 1%
Year 4: June RPI+0.5%, minimum 1%
Year 5: June RPI+0.25%, minimum 1%

We are disappointed that the company’s offer still includes basing each year’s pay rise on the June RPI figure despite it being payable on 1 April. However, we note that while our representatives have some reservations about the offer, they wish it to be recommended to our members. Accordingly, as requested by the Regional Organiser, we instruct the General Secretary to hold a referendum of members with a recommendation to accept.

A personal letter to be sent to all members along the lines set out in our Regional Organiser’s report. London Transport Regional Council and LU Engineering branch to be advised.
