Dear RMT Member
RATES OF PAY & CONDITIONS OF SERVICE 2024 - TRANSPORT FOR WALES RAIL (STATIONS, CLERICAL & ADMIN GRADES)
Further to my previous correspondence of 7th August 2024, I am writing to provide an update in relation to the pay talks.
At a meeting held with Transport for Wales earlier today to discuss the collective pay award, the company tabled the following revised offer for consideration:
- 2 Year Offer
- Year One - 3.5% increase applicable from 1stApril 2024
- Year Two - RPI increase (February 2025) applicable from 1st April 2025
- No compulsory redundancy agreement
For clarity, the above represents a ‘no strings’ offer applicable to Stations and Clerical & Admin Grades, though it should be noted that sperate productivity-based discussions are ongoing at Stations Company Council level. The company has declined a similar offer in respect of discussions for our Clerical & Admin grades.
Over the coming days, your RMT Representatives will be consulting with members to seek your views on the offer, and I would recommend that you speak with your representative to express your views. Following on from this, the offer will be referred to the RMT National Executive Committee for consideration.
Should you require any further information at all, then please do not hesitate to contact your Regional Organiser Steven Skelly on 0117 925 5018 or 07766 020531.
Yours sincerely
Michael Lynch
General Secretary
