Campaigning for better working conditions
Dear all Drivers,
It recently became evident that Full Time and Night Tube Train Driver's had being Leap-frogged by other Night Tube Train Driver's and Full Time Driver's and the majority of this was from external Driving staff through the school.
To all Local and Functional Train Operator Representatives

RATES OF PAY AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2017 – SERCO LONDON CYCLE HIRE SCHEME
We congratulate the Lead Officer, Reps and Camden 3 Branch for securing an improved pay offer from the company to the backdrop of a major reorganisation.
The following offer has been tabled by the company:
An increase of 2.5%, effective 1st April 2017 and a commitment to enter into talks in October 2017 on reducing the working week from 40 to 35 hours without loss of pay.
ACAS UPDATE
Your union RMT entered into dispute yesterday over management's failure to adhere to agreements made in the last pay deal.
These are as follows:
- Failure to allow a referendum on the 4 Day trail on the Jubilee line when it finishes in September.
- Failure to introduce a range of pro rota working arrangements to enhance T/ops work life balance.
- Failure to give your Union assurances in regard to no increases in Weekend working for existing T/ops.
Talks are ongoing at ACAS and your Union will update you on any developments,
We note and adopt the report from our National Sub Committee.
REPORT: RESPONSIBILITY FOR EMPLOYEE TERMS & CONDITIONS – CONTRACTORS/CLIENT COMPANY
Referring to Decision No, NWW, 26th July 2017, your National Sub-committee submits the following report:
We note the report from our Lead Officer and reject the derisory offer from the company which too is offered under the ‘Pay for Performance’ arrangements which are not agreed to by this union.
We also note the resolve of our TfL No.1 Branch and Reps in their steadfast position in these pay negotiations on behalf of our Members.
We instruct the General Secretary to write to the company requesting that they provide full responses to the 12 demands put to them formally by our Lead Officer during the negotiations process.
Members to be advised by email and text.
