Members of the TSSA rail union working as Operations Managers at TransPennine Express (TPE) have voted unanimously in favor of both strike action and action short of a strike.

The dispute centers on TPE's refusal to offer an acceptable package regarding on-call working, overtime, and compensatory time off in lieu for staff in various managerial roles.

The ballot, involving several dozen members responsible for round-the-clock safety and operational issues, saw a 100 percent vote in favor of industrial action among those participating.

Action short of a strike is scheduled to commence on Tuesday, November 25th, 2025.

The planned actions include a continuous ban on covering vacant on-call lines, a prohibition on out-of-hours work communication, and a ban on undertaking contingency duties arising from industrial action.

Additional restrictions involve halting mentoring, training of colleagues, and no double desk duties or cross-cover for other grades.

Furthermore, discontinuous action includes a ban on on-call activities over three consecutive weekends in late November and early December.

These workers are responsible for immediate response to safety and operational problems, holding 24-hour on-call availability from Thursday to Thursday.

TSSA's members have overwhelmingly voted to accept the two offers made by the train companies. This means that ballots for continuing industrial action have been withdrawn and the union will enter into discussions with employers on the detail of implementing all the principles and commitments contained in the settlement.

*A two year pay deal covering 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 which provides for a 5 per cent increase or a minimum increase of £1,750 whichever is the greater in year 1, and a further 4 per cent increase in year 2.

*No compulsory redundancies of employees within the grades directly affected by the Workforce Changes (see below) from the date of the agreement until 31st December 2024.

Dozens of TSSA members working on London's Elizabeth Line will go on strike in January 2023 over pay and proposed changes to pensions. The strikes, which are expected to bring the Elizabeth Line to a halt, will take place on January 12, 2023. In addition, action short of a strike, including working only contracted hours and not providing contingency cover, will take place from January 12 to February 28, 2023. The action follows a successful ballot in which 90% of members voted in favor of strike action and 95% voted in favor of action short of a strike, on an 80% turnout. TSSA members work in essential roles on the Elizabeth Line, including as traffic managers, service and infrastructure managers, and incident response managers. The union has said that members at Rail for London Infrastructure are being paid significantly less than their counterparts on other parts of the TfL network.
