Dear RMT Member,

 

DEFEND JOBS, PAY AND CONDITIONS (DRIVERS) – CROSS COUNTRY TRAINS

 

I would like to congratulate you on delivering a successful mandate for industrial action and for your determination in fighting for a fair deal. The Union’s National Executive Committee has further considered the ballot result and believes that we must now take industrial action.

 

Therefore, Cross Country Driver members are instructed to take strike action by not booking on for any shifts that commence between:

 

• 0001 Hours and 2359 Hours on Monday 5^th February 2024

 

Additionally, the Union’s NEC is calling on members not to undertake any non-contractual overtime. Therefore, Cross Country Driver members are also instructed not to work any voluntary overtime between:

 

• 0001 Hours on Friday 2^nd February 2024 and 2359 Hours on Sunday 4^th February 2024
• 0001 Hours and 2359 Hours on Tuesday 6th February 2024.

            

I ask that you continue to stand shoulder to shoulder during the days of industrial action and that you continue to support your colleagues.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Michael Lynch

General Secretary
