Dear RMT Member,
RATES OF PAY AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2023 – ALSTOM CREWE
I write to advise you that the ballot has now closed and the result is as follows:-
Are you prepared to take strike action?
Number of individuals who were entitled to vote in the ballot: 16
Number of votes cast in the ballot: 8
Number of individuals answering “Yes” to the question: 6
Number of individuals answering “No” to the question: 2
Number of spoiled or otherwise invalid voting papers returned: 0
Are you prepared to take industrial action short of a strike?

Number of votes cast in the ballot: 8
Number of individuals answering “Yes” to the question: 7
Number of individuals answering “No” to the question: 1

Unfortunately, the ballot for strike action has not met the thresholds imposed due the anti-trade union laws, however, the thresholds of action short of a strike have been met.
The Union’s National Executive Committee is currently considering this result and I shall write to you again shortly.
Yours sincerely
Michael Lynch
General Secretary
