London Underground Strikes Called Off: RMT and Transport for London Reach Breakthrough in Talks The RMT unions planned strikes from May 19-22 have been canceled after a breakthrough in negotiations with Transport for London. The main issue was TfLs proposal for a voluntary four-day work week, which the RMT fears could lead to driver fatigue and safety concerns. While the strikes are off this week, the dispute isnt resolved, with rescheduled walkouts planned for early June. TfL remains optimistic about improving work-life balance and service reliability through these proposals. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
