Managers with Network Rail have voted to accept a pay offer, their union has announced. The Transport Salaried Staffs Association (TSSA) said its management grade members accepted a 4% increase in a ballot.
TSSA organising director Luke Chester said: “While falling short of our aspirations on basic pay, this agreement has the significant benefit of addressing many of our members’ long-standing concerns, including staff travel facilities. It’s very good news that our union was able to stand up collectively and win concessions across the board from the company which will really benefit our members.
“However, it’s a shame that managers had to vote for industrial action before we could make progress. We remain committed to further dialogue with Network Rail (NR) to build on these gains and deliver a fair deal for our members going forward.”
