RMT members in four areas on LUL stations - Victoria Centre (Euston/Green Park), King's Cross, Heathrow (Heathrow Terminals, Hatton Cross, Hounslow West), and the Special Requirements Team (SRT, a department of mobile station staff which provides extra staffing resources for events, projects, etc.) - will strike on 25 November.
RMT is re-balloting drivers as part of the dispute over enforced night working. That dispute is as important today as it was when the 2016 agreement was first ripped up, back in 2021.
RMT has called strikes in its dispute to stop the consolidation of train operator grades. LU wants to merge the Night Tube duties, currently worked by a dedicated grade of driver, into the full-time rosters, offering full-time drivers a shift supplement to work them.
RMT has again announced strikes over Night Tube “grade consolidation”, as management are intent on destroying work/life balance and bumping up dangerous, fatigue inducing shift patterns in order to save themselves some cash.
Twice in the last week, managers have forced Green Park to stay open, despite it being below minimum numbers. Today, they finally had to admit defeat and close it.
LU management are leaving shedloads of duties uncovered because they reckon they are 'not essential'. Not essential to their money-saving or job-cutting plans, maybe, but Tubeworker reckons that they are very much essential to customer service and staff safety.
