Every Job Matters - Defending London Underground Jobs

 

Latest edition of londoncalling - LUL renege on their commitment for salary guarantee

LU’s plans to trigger mass displacement of CSAs, SAMFs, SCRAs and Supervisors have been confirmed in talks about Fit for the Future..
We have been pushing the company to explain how widespread displacements will be avoided and to explain how the guarantee of being offered a role with no loss of pay can work with the new staffing model that LU is proposing.
Now we have an answer. In order for SSMFs, SAMFs and SCRAs to keep their substantive salary they will have to pass an assessment to prove they are competent for the new grade (CSS2 or CSS1).

Station by Station Review: Member Feedback

RMT, London Underground and other unions are involved in ongoing talks regarding 'Fit for the Future: Stations' plans.

This could be a positive step but tube bosses propose to carry it out in a very short amount of time.
