Dear Colleagues

 

Rates of Pay and Conditions of Service 2024 – Offshore Diving Industry Agreement

 

Referring to previous correspondence, I can report that the union’s negotiating team will meet with the ODIA signatories under the auspices of ACAS on Tuesday 6th August 2024. Make no mistake, the ODIA signatories have requested further pay talks because RMT members have signalled their willingness to take industrial action. It is a testament to the strength and solidarity our members, that this union has been able to re-open negotiations.  

 

In the meantime, the strike action for GDC members at Boskalis Subsea Services, Subsea7 and TechnipFMC UK remains in place. I can also report that the National Executive Committee has decided to re-ballot GDC members at Helix WellOps for industrial action and I will advise you of the ballot timetable in due course. Furthermore, I will write to our ODIA ‘dayrater’ members with instructions next week.     

 

I will keep you advised of all further developments.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Michael Lynch

General Secretary
