Passengers have been warned to expect last-minute cancellations on ScotRail trains as staff begin an overtime ban.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Rail, Shipping and Transport Union (RMT) members will follow instructions not to work overtime if there is a wage dispute with the operator.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It is the latest industrial action by rail workers after the union rejected another wage offer last week.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The strike involves non-drivers, including engineers, conductors, ticket inspectors, station workers and cleaners.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    The RMT rejected ScotRail’s latest package, which included a 5% base wage increase, a six-year job guarantee, a \u00a3500 lump sum payment for technology such as mobile phones and improved maternity leave conditions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    The company had also proposed a further payment of \u00a3390 and an increased commission for front-line teams.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    About 2,000 workers at ScotRail are members of the RMT union, with strike action expected to result in daily layoffs from Friday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    ScotRail said information about the potential impact on services would be made available on social media, the ScotRail website and its app.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    Phil Campbell, ScotRail’s Head of Customer Operations, said: “We are genuinely disappointed by this additional industrial action which will again impact our customers following the strike earlier in the week.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    “In these challenging times, the ban on overtime is not helping Deutsche Bahn to recover and, in addition to the effects on travelers, will also burden our employees with loss of income.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    \u201cWe rely on employees working overtime in various parts of the business as we are actively recruiting to fill vacancies and unfortunately there will be some daily from Friday 14th October and throughout the RMT ban period give cancellations.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    He added: “We will do everything we can to minimize the impact on customers, however there will be some disruption. We advise customers to check their trip before traveling, especially in the morning before starting their day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    “We continue to meet with RMT officials to resolve this dispute.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    RMT General Secretary Mick Lynch said: “Our industrial action campaign at ScotRail will continue until we can find a just solution to our dispute.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    \n

    “We are always open to meaningful discussions with ScotRail to address any outstanding issues.” <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
