Imposition of Rosters - Station Staff - Merseyrail

Our Ref BR2/8/2

13th July 2016

TO ALL STATION STAFF MEMBERS AT MERSEYRAIL


Dear Colleagues

IMPOSITION OF ROSTERS - STATION STAFF - MERSEYRAIL

I write to advise you that the referendum of members in relation to the above matter has now closed and the result is as follows:

Are you prepared to accept the Company’s offer?

Votes Cast                          236
Number voting ‘Yes’       135
Number Voting ‘No’       101
Spoilt Papers                      0

The union’s National Executive Committee has now considered the matter and accepts the company’s latest proposals.

On behalf of myself and the NEC, I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate our members for voting to accept the offer. This is a victory for the RMT and our membership in supporting the union’s long standing policy to reduce the use of agency staff carrying out core railway work.

Best wishes.
 
Mick Cash
General Secretary
