WORKERS, MAY 2008 ISSUE
THE RMT has called off a planned 48-hour strike by 2,500 tube maintenance workers at Metronet, due to start on 28 April.
"We now have in writing undertakings that when the Metronet contracts are taken back in-house by Transport for London (TfL) there will be no outsourcing, and that all Metronet staff will be entitled to join the TfL pension fund and enjoy the same travel facilities as other TfL employees," said RMT general secretary Bob Crow.
