Support for our campaign against staffing cuts
Submitted by Admin on 3 November, 2010 - 17:22Hello RMT and tube workers
I fully support the retention of staffing at tube stations because of the following:-
1. Personal safety, CCTV cannot be a substitute for having a responsible person on site to help people especially lone female passengers.
2. Rail safety, supervisors have safety duties to do with points and other equipment, who will be on the ground to deal with this?
3. Ticketing, machines break, also they are difficult for some people to use i.e. those with learning disabilities, sight problems and people from different countries.
