UK Train Drivers Secure 15% Pay Rise; LNER Strikes Continue
Aug 16, 2024, 05:08 AM
The UK train drivers' union, Aslef, has reached a deal with the government to end a long-running pay dispute, which has caused rail strikes for over two years. The agreement includes a three-year pay increase of 15% with no conditions attached, raising the average train driver's salary from £60,000 to £69,000. This deal will be put to a member referendum for approval. Despite this agreement, train drivers on the London North Eastern Railway (LNER) have announced a series of 22 strikes every weekend from the end of August until November, citing issues unrelated to pay, such as a breakdown in industrial relations and management practices.
