WORKERS on the Docklands Light Railway in London are to strike next week over “a comprehensive breakdown in industrial relations.”
Members of rail union RMT will strike for 24 hours from Wednesday morning.
They include cleaners, security staff and “travel safe” officers.
The workers are employed by contractor ISS.
RMT general secretary Mick Cash said: “We are supporting our members in this further phase of strike action in a bid to force management to honour agreements, pay staff their contractual hours and give their staff proper respect and dignity at work.
“It is now time for the London Mayor, Sadiq Khan, to step in and sort out this company who are abusing a key group of London transport workers on his watch.
“RMT reps continue to press management to settle the dispute but the company are blatantly ignoring the union’s concerns.
“The union remains available for meaningful talks,” said Mr Cash.
