RMT Proposes Better System For SRT Deployment
Submitted by janine on Fri, 21/11/2008RMT has sent the following proposal to LUL management to improve the way that the Special Requirements Team is deployed and hopefully prevent some of the abuses we have seen so far ...
RMT (with the backing of TSSA) would like to propose the introduction of a standard form on which GSMs request the deployment of the SRT to stations on their group.
This form should require them to specify the dates, numbers and grades of staff, plus the reason for their needing SRT staff (name and nature of special event etc) and the roles that the SRT staff will be carrying out.
Attention all SRT Staff!

Special Requirements Team Staff: Know Your Rights
Submitted by janine on Mon, 29/09/2008Here is a concise guide to your rights for SRT staff. You can find the full official policy here.
As the SRT is new, it is especially important for staff to know your rights and to assert them, as management are trying to ‘push the boundaries’ and use you in ways that they should not. If they are able to get away this, then you as an SRT staff member will have an even heavier workload and more difficult working life. In addition, management will use you to help them de-staff our stations, to the detriment of the whole workforce.
So – stand up for your rights. If management breach any of these rights, contact RMT immediately.

Special Requirements?
Submitted by janine on Mon, 21/04/2008Malcolm Taylor, RMT Stations & Revenue Council rep, reports.
The idea of a ‘special events team’ was agreed as part of the 35-hour week, but this has now changed to the ‘special requirements team’ and the exact purpose of its role is becoming a bone of contention. Much speculation can be made as to how management expect to utilise this team, and when they try to get phrases such as ‘short term needs’ put into the Framework Agreement, alarm bells start ringing!
