Heathrow Express strike cancelled

Monday, 23 Jun, 2011 0

A strike by Heathrow Express staff scheduled for this Sunday has been cancelled after unions agreed to ballot members on a new pay deal.

Members of the Rail Maritime and Transport union called off the 24-hour walk-out from 0915 after management at Heathrow Express offered an improvement on the 4.5% offer that caused the strike announcement.

There were also plans to ban overtime this weekend but these have also been dropped.

A union spokesman said: "The RMT executive is calling on members to vote to accept the new and improved offer.

"Following receipt of an improved offer from the company, strike action and action short of a strike on Heathrow Express scheduled for next week has been suspended to allow for a referendum ballot of members on the new proposals.”
