TfL enforcement officers, who ensure the safety of passengers across the London transport network, are set to strike over pay disputes. The Unite union reports that these officers suffer high rates of abuse while receiving significantly less pay than their London Underground counterparts. With incidents of violence against them on the rise, the union insists TfL's pay offer is inadequate, leading to the escalation of strike actions. The union's leadership demands a fairer compensation structure, while TfL expresses disappointment and insists on ongoing discussions to mitigate concerns.
Unite claims that TfL's enforcement officers are paid thousands of pounds less than their London Underground counterparts despite their vital role in public safety.
Unite general secretary Sharon Graham stated that TfL's imposed pay offer is an 'insult' to the enforcement officers who are at constant risk due to their jobs.
A TfL spokesperson expressed disappointment over the strike announcement, highlighting previous discussions and an ongoing plan to address the workers' concerns.
Hundreds of TfL enforcement officers are preparing to strike, citing insufficient pay compared to similar roles on the London Underground network.
