"RMT general secretary Eddie Dempsey stated, 'We have approached negotiations with TfL in good faith throughout this entire process. But despite our best efforts, TfL seem unwilling to make any concessions in a bid to avert strike action.'"
"TfL claims it proposed a four-day working week for train operators in March 2025, engaging with unions on implementation, including a pilot for train drivers on the Bakerloo line."
"TfL has indicated that if the strike proceeds, widespread disruption is expected across the London Underground, particularly affecting key lines."
The RMT union is preparing for tube strikes due to a breakdown in negotiations with Transport for London (TfL) over a proposed four-day work week. TfL initially offered to negotiate but later indicated it would impose changes. The RMT seeks a reduction in working hours without a loss in pay, while TfL's proposal involves extending shift hours for a cost-neutral change. Disruption is expected across the London Underground, particularly on the Piccadilly, Circle, Metropolitan, and Central lines during the strike days.
