Pay deal averts rail strike threat | |
(35 minutes later) | |
The threat of a UK national rail strike has been averted after Network Rail agreed a two-year pay deal with unions. | |
Members of the RMT, TSSA and Unite unions have voted to accept the offer. | |
The deal includes a 2% pay rise this year and a pay increase in line with RPI inflation next year. There is also an assurance of no compulsory redundancies to the end of next year. | |
Union members had threatened industrial action this month, but it was called off after a revised offer was made. |
