2009 Agreement Sees Drivers Forced Off Roster

Posted in Tubeworker's blog on ,

Drivers are feeling the effects of the woeful 2009 Agreement as management come after jobs.

At Barking, 8 drivers have been forced off the roster and into the pool, including some who have been on the roster for years. They now find themselves having to work out of Acton Town sometimes several times a week!

It seems that ASLEF, in their enthusiasm to get a 'minimum numbers' agreement that would impress their colleagues on the national railway, have signed up to an agreement that sees minimum numbers set below existing numbers and therefore gives management the green light to cut jobs and turn some drivers' working lives upside down.

What a mess.
