RMT Pushes For Members To Be Allowed Representation At Occupational Health

Submitted by Admin on 13 December, 2012 - 16:17

We note the resolution from our London Transport Regional Council, and support its view that members should be entitled to representation at Occupational Health appointments.

We instruct the General Secretary to ensure that this matter is raised with the employer(s) in line with this resolution, and to obtain a report as to whether our members in other companies have such rights.

Developments to be placed in front of us.

London Transport Regional Council and branches to be advised.

We note the resolution from our London Transport Regional Council and share its concern about the treatment of Occupational Health staff.

TfL Changes To New Years Working Arrangements Concerns RMT

Submitted by Admin on 13 December, 2012 - 16:10

We note the correspondence from Transport for London, and that for the most part, arrangements are the same as in previous year. However, following consultation with our representatives, we further note that TfL intends to change its practice regarding staff who volunteer to work additional duties assisting the public on New Year’s Eve, to the detriment of our members, compelling them to take a day’s leave when they previously did not have to.

We therefore instruct the General Secretary to take this up with the employer as a matter of urgency.

RMT Pursues Issue Of Olympic Payment To Admin Grades

Submitted by Admin on 13 December, 2012 - 16:07

We note the correspondence from London Underground Ltd, which merely tells us the structure of 'rewards' for admin staff, not the level at which they were paid out in recognition of the extra workload during the Olympics.

We therefore instruct the General Secretary to write again to LUL, asking specifically: what opportunity it gave staff to nominate; how many nominations were received; and how many awards of each category were granted.

Breach of Casualisation Dispute Continues And May Be Escalated

Submitted by Admin on 13 December, 2012 - 16:01

We note that London Underground Ltd continues to breach the settlement of our 2008 Casualisation dispute, in particular in its deployment of ICSAs, continuing use of agency staff, and plans to introduce mobile station supervision.

Noting the correspondence with our legal advisers, we instruct the General Secretary to send a letter to all LUL members reminding them of our ongoing industrial action in this dispute.
