Re: I support strikes that make passengers safer

Quote:
The operator of the Southern rail network has offered conductors a lump sum of £2,000 in a bid to bring industrial action to an end.

Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR) has set the RMT union a deadline of midday on Thursday to agree to end strikes.

It said conductors would also be asked to sign up to new on-board roles as part of an eight-point offer.

GTR said it has set out "a fair, clear and unambiguous" plan of action to the RMT to settle the 10-month dispute.

In a letter to Mick Cash, the RMT's general secretary, it issued Thursday's deadline to agree to the deal and call off all planned strikes, with conductors then being balloted on the full offer.

The company said if the terms were not agreed by Thursday, guards would be served notice letters terminating their existing contracts and inviting them to sign up to the new on-board supervisor roles.
