Scotrail staff work-to-rule over change in job description
SCOTRAIL faced a flurry of cancellations this weekend as a work-to-rule among driver managers takes hold.
The train operator, which is owned by the Dutch state, imposed a change to the roles on driver team managers (DTMs) in July, obligating them to drive up to three drivers’ shifts a week in addition to their normal duties.
But the TSSA has called a work-to-rule across the grade, with DTMs refusing to drive trains.
