Potential National Rail disruption
13 May 2015
The RMT trade union members employed by Network Rail have voted in favour of taking some form of industrial action in relation to a pay dispute.
Should industrial action be taken it is likely to cause significant disruption across the railway network. Network Rail and the Train Operators are working to understand the full impact and are developing contingency plans where possible.
In the event of widespread industrial action 911±¬ÁÏÍøill make every attempt to keep activities running, with members of staff asked to try to come in to work if practicable. If you are not able to get to work you should advise your Head of Department (or deputy or line manager). Consideration should be given to flexible working options, including working from home, where possible. Where staff cannot work from home and will be unable to get to work, a day's leave should be booked. If it is necessary to curtail access to buildings, staff will be notified to that effect.
