Tube workers protest over workplace safety

TRANSPORT workers are holding a protest today to demand that London Underground (LU) deals with violence against its staff.

RMT members will demonstrate outside a meeting of the LU’s workplace violence group at Blackfriars Road, south London, as part of a new union campaign for workplace safety.

The campaign is demanding that lone working comes to an end and that transport bosses carry out an audit to ensure staffing levels at all stations are safe.
