RMT Press Office:
RMT has suspended planned strike action on CrossCountry this Saturday, after management agreed to intensive talks to resolve the dispute.
CrossCountry had refused to recognise RMT at all grades within the company. This is despite written evidence to the contrary.
Now the company has agreed to sit down with RMT to address our concerns with no changes to agreements in this period.
RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said: "With our members prepared to take strike action this weekend, CrossCountry management has seen the need to sit down with RMT to find a long-term resolution to this impasse.
"We have agreed to suspend strike action and take up this opportunity.
"But our strike mandate remains in place, so we will name new strike dates if that becomes necessary."
