The Transport Salaried Staffs’ Association said new ballots will be held at West Midlands Trains, Greater Anglia, Northern and TransPennine Express.
Strike ballots are to be held again at four train companies where workers recently voted in favour but the legal threshold was narrowly missed.The original ballot of members saw the legal threshold for strike action, 40% of the entire electorate, missed by fine margins and in one case by just a single vote, said the union.
“In a handful of companies, members voted overwhelmingly in favour of being able to take strike action but the numbers taking part fell just below the required artificial Tory threshold, often by tiny margins.“I’m extremely confident we will see a significant uptick in participation which takes us over the deliberately obstructive threshold.”
