ROSTERING ARRANGEMENTS – SB RAIL (BABCOCK RAIL & SWIETELSKY)

Our Ref: BR4/8/2

 

22^nd January 2024

 

Dear RMT Member,

 

ROSTERING ARRANGEMENTS – SB RAIL (BABCOCK RAIL & SWIETELSKY)

 

Further to ongoing discussions that have taken place between your Lead Officer and the company, a new offer has been proposed regarding its failure to implement and adhere to part of the agreement relating to roster changes from a day shift to night shift, or vice versa. 

 

The Company has offered a one-off payment of £700 to each employee on the OTM agreement, in exchange for the removal of the night shift to day shift payment clause. Roster changes from days to nights will continue to be paid going forward.

 

The National Executive Committee has considered this matter and instructed me to hold an e-referendum of you and your colleagues so that you can have your final say on this offer.

 

The referendum will close at 11:00am on Tuesday 30^th January 2024.

Members will shortly receive an email from 'RMT Referenda' which will allow you to register your vote. Please follow the instructions and make sure you complete this by no later than 11:00 hours on Tuesday 30^th January 2024.
