Day Off? No Chance!

Posted in Tubeworker's blog on ,

Reserve staff at Victoria are being refused days off, and changes of rest days, when they ask for them. There have been ridiculous stories of being refused days off for weddings in October!

After some staff complained that others were getting preferential treatment with days off, management have stepped in to ensure that everyone is being treated the same – refusing all requests!

A group of reserves has put in a grievance, involving both RMT and TSSA reps, as morale on the stations has plummeted. For reserves, the flexibility to request changes to rest days is one of the few beneifts to compensate for short-notice shift changes and the inability to plan life more than a month in advance.

It’s bad enough that management have so much control over us at work – they shouldn’t control our lives outside work as well!
