TfL enforcement officers intensify strike action
The workers, who deal with violence and aggression across the TfL network to keep the passengers and staff safe, are paid thousands less than their counterparts on the London Underground.
Pay strikes by hundreds of officers within the Compliance, Policing, Operations and Security Directorate (CPOS) at Transport for London (TfL) have intensified.
The workers, who deal with violence and aggression across the TfL network to keep the passengers and staff safe, are paid less than their counterparts on the London Underground.
Strike action began in December, following a pay offer by TfL that had been rejected by the workers.
Further industrial action was taken in February, with fresh strikes to take place on March 20th, 21st and 22nd.
Sharon Graham, general secretary at Unite, said: “This dispute will continue to escalate until TfL takes steps to close this totally unfair pay gap.
“These are frontline workers who keep the public safe every day and should not be treated as second class employees.
“TfL’s CPOS workers have Unite’s full support during their strikes for fair pay.”
Steven Stockwell, regional officer at Unite said: “TfL has caused this dispute by trying to pay these workers, who often put themselves in harm’s way to protect the public, on the cheap.
