RMT Press Office:
Rail union RMT, has welcomed a new pay agreement at Eurostar after members voted to accept the final offer from the company.
The deal includes a 3.8% pay rise, a matching 3.8% increase in home-to-work travel allowances, and key improvements to family-friendly policies, all negotiated by RMT.
These include one extra day of paid carer’s leave and an additional two days of paid paternity leave.
Crucially, the agreement also guarantees the union a place in national discussions on industry-wide travel benefits, ensuring Eurostar staff are represented in wider sector talks.
Further commitments around talks on productivity, including peak-time operational support, rostering improvements, job booking systems, and service delivery targets were also agreed.
RMT general secretary Eddie Dempsey congratulated members at Eurostar for this achievement and all the hard work that went into negotiating the settlement.
“This result shows what organised trade unionism can deliver.
"We will now focus on making sure the terms are rolled out fairly and that any future productivity discussions respect our members and their working conditions,” he said.
