ScotRail workers vote for action over CCTV job cuts [BBC News]





Date: 14/09/2017

Rail workers have voted to take industrial action over plans by ScotRail to cut 22 CCTV staff posts. Rail union RMT said the roles at customer information centres in Paisley and Dunfermline were 'crucial to providing a safe and secure railway network'. The union's executive will now consider what action to take. ScotRail said it ran a 'no compulsory redundancy' policy and that talks with staff and unions were 'ongoing'. The planned job cuts come as the rail operator seeks to modernise technology used at the two centres, which manage service information.
