The RMT union has rejected a voluntary four-day week offer from TfL, instead demanding a 32-hour week with no loss of pay. This would take driver pay to roughly Β£43 an hour β€” outstripping the hourly rate of some surgeons. While the union cites driver fatigue as a major safety concern, other unions like Aslef have already signed on. Expect major disruption across the network this week. #London #TubeStrike #Shorts #TfL #RMT #FourDayWeek #LondonUnderground
