Where Are Our Thermals?

Submitted by rmtlondon on 20 January, 2014 - 01:21

Due to the massive response to, and the damning results of, my survey last year, London Underground were shamed into taking our Thermal Comfort seriously.

Unfortunately, they haven’t taken it seriously enough – as you are about to discover.

LU recently employed various people and/or departments to look at ‘The Thermal Comfort of Operational Staff Who Work Outside’. During this exercise our uniform was tested to determine its TOG rating.

Here’s what a London Underground HSE advisor said.

Myth buster No. 1- Pay cut off dates

Submitted by Eamonn Lynch on 17 January, 2014 - 17:23

The first casualty of any dispute is often the truth
Have a look at the attached diary image taken straight from a LUL computer that states quite clearly when the cut -off dates are
A cut-off date is exactly that. For a reason
If LUL do not pay you correctly following any industrial action you may have taken, it will because they deliberated decided to change the way we get paid
Don’t be fooled by the naysayers and doom mongers
Solidarity wins
Red = Pay day
Blue =cut-off date
