Station supervisor’s salary: £50,000 – £54,999
We’re just into the second week of 2016 and a barrage of Tube strikes has already been announced.
Yesterday, rail workers union RMT and Tube drivers’ union Aslef said they’re going to stage three strikes in January and February over pay and Night Tube disputes.
The argument against strikes is that the Night Tube will be a massive benefit to the economy and that workers are being offered fair pay.
London Mayor Boris Johnson said: “London Underground, Transport for London (TfL) and City Hall won’t bow to unreasonable demands.”
In a statement, he added: “The Night Tube will be of massive benefit to London’s economy, it’s supported by the vast majority of Londoners, it means thousands of jobs for Londoners and hundreds of jobs for London Underground, and there will be no changes to the work life balance of staff.
“It was accompanied by a very fair financial offer for drivers who already take home nearly £50,000 a year for a 36 hour week with 43 days holiday. Incredibly that wasn’t enough for union bosses. They chose to reject our offer – again without ever properly consulting their membership.
“LU has advertised for 200 new part-time drivers. We’ve had over six thousand applications, many from existing drivers who want to work on the night tube, even if their union bosses don’t want them to.”
“These strikes are absurd. They will hit the travelling public, business and hard-working tube staff, many of whom clearly don’t believe in this nonsense. And for what? Ultimately it will do nothing to prevent the advent of the night tube – a 24-hour service for a 21st century city.”
