There's going to be more industrial action from two unions and 14 train companies
Here is everything you will need to know about travelling via train during October’sMuch like the previous strike action that’s taken place in 2022, the main reason for the October strikes is pay issues during the rising cost of living and working conditions.
Both had been in deep-rooted conversation since the biggest rail strikes in 30 years took place over three days in June 2022.RMT general secretary: “Transport workers are joining a wave of strike action on October 1st, sending a clear message to the government and employers that working people will not accept continued attacks on pay and working conditions at a time when big business profits are at an all-time high.
“We want a settlement to these disputes where our members and their families can get a square deal. And we will not rest until we get a satisfactory outcome.”, said: “We would much rather not be in this position. We don’t want to go on strike – withdrawing your labour, although a fundamental human right, is always a last resort for this trade union – but the train companies have been determined to force our hand.
