Safe Trains for All

Safe Trains for All

The campaign will focus on five key areas to: * Save Our Services * Save Our Guards * Save Our Station Staff * Save Our Engineers * Save Our Cleaning & Maintenance teams

 

The campaign has come about as a result of this Government's plans to extend Driver Only Operation and its ongoing drive to remove staff from ticket offices, platform interfaces and, in many cases, to leave many stations entirely unstaffed. 

The Union believes that government plans represent a clear danger in form of: reduced service levels; reduced passenger safety; increased fares; introduction of Driver Only Operation (DOO); cuts to staffing; reduced safety standards; an attack on terms and conditions of employment; slashing of pension benefits; reduced mobility and access; limited investment in new rolling stock or maintenance, to be followed by the habitual introduction of a casualised workforce.

The campaign will focus on five key areas to:

* Save Our Services
* Save Our Guards
* Save Our Station Staff
* Save Our Engineers
* Save Our Cleaning & Maintenance teams
