Rates of Pay and Conditions of Service 2023 – Royal Fleet Auxiliary

Our Ref: SH/0001/RFA

24th July 2024 

 

Dear Colleagues 

 

Rates of Pay and Conditions of Service 2023 – Royal Fleet Auxiliary

 

Referring to previous correspondence, I am writing to advise you that the strike action planned for Friday 26th July 2024 has now been suspended.

 

Please work as normal on Friday. 

 

The strike action planned for Thursday 1st August 2024 is still scheduled to go ahead.  

 

For ease of reference, the strike action on 1st August 2024 is as follows: 

 

  • If your ship is in port DO NOT TURN TO for any duty that commences between 00:01 hours and 23:59 hours on Thursday 1st August 2024.

 

NB:  During the above period of strike action members must ensure that the safety of the ship is maintained, including Moorings and Gangways, at all times.

 

Due to the anti-trade union laws, the current ballot mandate will expire in the autumn. The National Executive Committee has taken the decision to re-ballot all Royal Fleet Auxiliary members to seek a new mandate for industrial action. I will write again very soon with details of the re-ballot.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Michael Lynch                                        

General Secretary
