Network Rail hit back and insisted a 'fair and affordable and improved deal is on the table' as strikes are scheduled for November 3,5 and 7
The rail workers' union has announced three more strike days next month after it said Network Rail had performed a 'u-turn' on an improve pay deal.The Rail, Maritime and Transport union said the strikes have been announced after Network Rail 'attempted to impose drastic changes in working practices on their staff'.More than 40,000 members of the RMT at Network Rail and 15 train operating companies are now poised to walk out again in a row over jobs, pay and conditions.
In a statement published on its website, the RMT alleged there had been a 'dramatic U-turn', adding: "Network Rail bosses reneged on their promises of an improved pay offer and sought to impose job cuts, more unsocial hours and detrimental changes to rosters. "On the one hand they were telling our negotiators that they were prepared to do a deal while planning to torpedo negotiations by imposing unacceptable changes to our members terms and conditions.
