Union reps

RMT members need and are entitiled to representatives. RMT reps are entitled to certain time off from work to carry out their duties, and certain facilities to carry out their role. This section of the website keeps you informed of reps' rights, and updated about RMT's efforts to get fair numbers of reps recognised, and to get reps the release and facilities that they need.

SRT Staff: Your Right to Representation

RMT Stations & Revenue Council representatives negotiate with management about SRT issues and help individual SRT staff. But every other group of station and revenue staff has local union representatives as well as the Council reps, and so should the SRT.

Supporting Local RMT Reps

At its meeting in May, RMT's London Transport Regional Council agreed to do more to support local RMT representatives. Below is the text of the resolution passed. We are already working on implementing it - the Regional Council Executive is organising a conference and training day on 29 August; and the Stations & Revenue Council has tabled demands to LUL management for better release and facilities for local reps.

Reps' Rights: Release and Facilities

LUL management allow the following for level 1 stations & revenue trade union representatives:

  • 3 days per quarter release: one each for consulting union members preliminary to the level 1 meeting ('prelim day'), the level 1 meeting itself (with no other work or union representation duties eg. case conferences on the same day), and feeding back to members about the discussions at the level 1 meeting.
  • access to a phone, a PC and photocopying facilities.
