Metronet Attacks Signal Department

Posted in Tubeworker's blog on ,

Metronet is up to its tricks again, undermining the Signal Department in a drip-drip fashion. The latest move is an attempt to remove signal staff from future control rooms.

The Infraco, despite repeatedly being forced to back down by its own workforce, still hasn't given up on outsourcing, and its moves against the Signal Department should be seen in context of secret outsourcing of work to Tubelines, Westinghouse and others. Anyone would think that Metronet wanted to finish off its own Signal Department.

When an employer does this sort of inch-by-inch attack, the danger is that the unions fall back inch by inch. So the important thing is not to budge an inch: defend the Signal Department!
