Tube worker sacked helping colleague who was assaulted

Are there any further developments in this case?

Gone rather quiet. But on LU anything to do with grievances or discipline can often be measured in years, such is the efficiency of things.

Did Lee get re-instated or not? I can’t find anything online about it.

Don't think so. The RMT dropped their industrial action as well.

Perhaps a settlement was reached.

The RMT does have a track record for calling for strike action / balloting / going on on strike and not following it through. The ticket office closures was just one example of this. Obviously each reason for a call to strike has its own merits (and this specific case may well be a deserving one), but usually when stating reasons why action should be called for, many things are conveniently left out and thus the full picture is not given.

Perhaps a settlement was reached.

Lee went to an Employment Tribunal and the parties settled before proceedings.

Thanks for the update guys.

Firstly I have not been required to seek the services of an Industrial Tribunal since before I turned 18. If I had done so, the last thing I would have wanted would have been re-instatement to the job.
