Network Rail has been given seven days to improve its two-year pay and conditions offer to 7,000 signalling and other key operational staff or face ballots for industrial action (link below.) http://www.rmtbristol.org.uk/2008/03/network_rail_operational_staff.html#moreIn co-ordinated referendums that closed today members of RMT and TSSA in operational, customer services and project and engineering-support grades voted heavily to reject the offer, of 4.8 per cent this year and RPI plus 0.5 per cent in 2009. Members of Unite have also been urged to reject the offer in a referendum yet to close.

The RMT is to ballot some 5,000 signallers and other key operational staff over pay and conditions after rejecting a “cynical” offer of an additional 0.1 per cent on the first year of a two-year deal (link below.) http://www.rmtbristol.org.uk/2008/04/rmt_to_ballot_network_rail_ope.html#moreThe union has informed the company that it is now in dispute, and will be balloting members for strike action and for action short of a strike. The union has also told the company that it wants a common anniversary date for all operations and infrastructure workers.
