Dear RMT Member
Rates of Pay and Conditions of Service 2023 – Rail Gourmet (Eurostar Contract)
You and your colleagues produced a magnificent show of solidarity during your solid strike last month. Your vibrant and loud demonstrations were not only heard on the picket lines but were shared far and wide on social media. So well done to everyone for taking part.
Following further consultation with your representatives and in another effort to get management back round the negotiating table, your union’s National Executive Committee has announced another round of strikes:
Members are instructed not to book on for any shifts that commence between:
- 06:00 hours on Wednesday 29th May and 05:59 hours on Friday 31st May 2024
You should be rewarded with a fair pay increase and genuine improvements to your terms and conditions. Management mistakenly believed that you and your colleagues would not be prepared to fight for pay justice, so it is time to prove them wrong yet again.
STAND FIRM TOGETHER
AND SUPPORT THE STRIKE ACTION
I will, of course, keep you fully advised on any further developments.
Yours sincerely
Michael Lynch
General Secretary
