DUTIES, NOTICE, CHANGES

• You must be provided with 28 days’ notice of duties and rest days.
• Your rest days can not be changed without your agreement.
• Your duties can be changed, but:
  • only for special events, possessions, unanticipated sickness or absence etc ie. not to cover rostered annual leave, ATOR, etc.
  • you must have 24 hours notice
  • management should ask you first
• Management/admin should not contact you about duty changes on your emergency contact number without your express permission. They should contact you at work, or write to you at home.
• RMT considers that it is not your responsibility to phone work to find out if your duties have changed, even if you are on a long weekend or leave. Management should ask you about changes before you start your leave or rest period: if they want to change them at short notice, they should write to you.
• If you have care responsibilities that mean that you can not have your duties changed at short notice, speak to your RMT rep, who will ask management for guarantees over notice of your duty changes.
• You must have 12 hours rest between duties - exceptionally, 10 hours; in an emergency, 8 hours.
• You can not be required to work more than 7 days in a row - 8 to facilitate a long weekend or minimise split rest periods during the week.

YOUR WORKING HOURS

• You can not work more than 5 hours without a meal break.
• You can not be required to work more than 10 hours, or 12 on a Sunday.
• If you work more than contractual hours in a 12-week period, you will be paid for the extra hours at overtime rate. If you would prefer 'time off in lieu', ask your manager: your RMT rep will support you.
• If you work less than contractual hours, LUL can require you to work the extra hours during the next 12-week period - but only a maximum 8 hours, and only in the next period.

Tip: Record in your RMT diary each week any variation of your hours from the standard 37½ (20 for part-timers) eg. +2, -1, so you can challenge any miscalculation by management.

WHERE YOU WORK

• You book on at the station you are rostered to work at on that day. If you are moved to another station during your working day, you can book off at that station, or, if the GSM agrees, at your base station, travelling in work time.
• You can be required to work at another station on the line, but only occasionally.
• Management can ask you to work at a station off the line for which you have licences, but you have the right to refuse.

FACILITIES

• You should have a locker as soon as practical.
• You can have a company-issued rucksack.
