The RMT has announced that following the 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.
The strikes were announced in a dispute over pay and working conditions.
The union says the strike suspension will allow for a referendum ballot of members on the new proposals. The RMT executive is ‘calling on members to vote to accept the new and improved offer’.
The strike action was scheduled for Sunday 26th June 2011 and Monday 27th June and RMT members have now been instructed to book on for shifts as normal on this date.
The overtime ban which was due to commence on Saturday 25th June 2011 and Sunday 26th June 2011 and on Monday 27th June 2011 and Tuesday 28th June 2011 has also been suspended.
