Tube union, RMT, has confirmed that further strike action will take place by a key group of staff at London Underground's Ruislip Depot.
The strike action will be taking place by the transplant train maintenance and stores staff at the depot.
The strike action is because of the dispute about pay parity and payments associated with train preparation based on the duties that staff undertake.
The staff have been instructed to take action by not booking on for shifts between:
- 19:00 hours on Friday 3rd August to 07:00 hours on Saturday 4th August 2018
- 07:00 hours to 19:00 hours on Sunday 5th August 2018
The Ruislip depot has responsibility for the operation and maintenance of London Underground's fleet of trains.
What did the officials say?
RMT General Secretary Mick Cash said:
“RMT is angry and frustrated that our efforts to reach a negotiated settlement to this dispute continue to be kicked back at every turn by London Underground.
“Despite previous industrial action there has been no serious move by London Underground to resolve these disputes which is why we have been left with no choice but to press on with a campaign of strike action in the pursuit of justice for our members.
“The union continues to remain available for meaningful talks.”
