Dear RMT Member
RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2024 – NETWORK RAIL
A meeting has taken place today between your RMT negotiating team and Network Rail to discuss your pay and conditions claim for 2024.
I reiterated the need for an unconditional proposal on pay and a new approach to addressing industry change and the working lives of railway workers ahead of the arrival of Great British Railways.
Following a productive discussion, the company has committed to formulating a definite proposal for your union to consider shortly.
A further meeting is being arranged for the 22nd of August where I expect to receive the proposal.
Finally, I recognise that these talks have taken some time and that your award is overdue. We are working hard to conclude negotiations and to obtain a good settlement for you.
I will update you in due course, but I trust this keeps you advised for now.
Yours sincerely
Michael Lynch
General Secretary
