Strike Type: Rail
Latest Gate Solutions Industrial Action Updates (2)
Rail union RMT has called on London North Eastern Railway to tackle low pay on its outsourced contracts and address systemic racism in its supply chain. The call comes ahead of ACAS talks with contractor Gate Solutions, which provides catering services on LNER trains, before scheduled strike action on Friday November 13.
A union report highlights occupational segregation, finding ethnic minority workers are significantly more likely to be employed via outsourcing contracts than directly by LNER. Members of Parliament have also urged the company to resolve the dispute and consider insourcing the contract.
Outsourced rail workers represented by RMT are taking strike action against low pay and in-work poverty across TransPennine contracts with Bidvest Noonan and Rail Gourmet.
Outsourced workers on the LNER contract employed by Gate Solutions will also begin a 24-hour strike from 16 October across locations including Doncaster, Edinburgh Waverley, King’s Cross, Leeds, Newcastle, and York.
Protests and an insourcing rally involving multiple unions will take place alongside the Labour Party conference in Liverpool calling for outsourced services to be brought back in-house.
