The RMT has always demanded equality across all areas and staff working on LUL worksites.
Whilst we welcome the below payments, we also believe that all workers deserve to be rewarded for working during certain periods such as Christmas and we are therefore approaching the company to obtain commitments for all other areas and staff to working during the same period
