Dear RMT Member,
Rates of Pay & Conditions of Service 2024 – Transport for London
I write to advise you that the ballot has now closed and the result is as follows:-
Are you prepared to take strike action?
Number of individuals who were entitled to vote in the ballot: 317
Number of votes cast in the ballot: 115
Number of individuals answering “Yes” to the question: 103
Number of individuals answering “No” to the question: 12
Number of spoiled or otherwise invalid voting papers returned: 0
Are you prepared to take industrial action short of a strike?
Number of individuals who were entitled to vote in the ballot: 317
Number of votes cast in the ballot: 115
Number of individuals answering “Yes” to the question: 109
Number of individuals answering “No” to the question: 6
Number of spoiled or otherwise invalid voting papers returned: 0
Unfortunately, despite a vote in favour of taking action the statutory thresholds have not been met in respect of this ballot. The union's National Executive Committee has taken the decision to re-ballot members and I will advise you of the timescales shortly.
I urge you all to make sure you use your vote to ensure a 50% turnout in the ballot, which will allow RMT to demand that the Company tables a suitable and acceptable pay offer for all TfL members.
Yours sincerely
Michael Lynch
General Secretary
