Passes and Pensions

Posted in Tubeworker's blog on ,

On Tubelines, workers from pre-PPP days have a free pass and TfL pension, and post-PPP employees do not. For years, Tubelines workers have fought this inequality, which persists although Tubelines is now in public hands. The more long-standing workers want pensions equality because the more people pay in, the bigger the pension pot.

Now Tubelines claims that it cannot address the issue until after the Olympics because of ‘uncertainty’ about Tubelines’ future. This rings alarm bells, suggesting possible re-privatisation is on the cards.

The bosses also want to delay the issue until after we can use our industrial clout to do something about it. The unions should insist on equal passes and pensions now! And how about a bonus for the Olympics too?
