THOUSANDS of London Underground workers are set to strike in the coming weeks, it has been announced.<\/p>\n

The RMT Union confirmed its members would walk out for two days as part of their ongoing battle with TfL over pay and conditions.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The strikes are set to affect the network between October 4 and October 6.<\/p>\n

Union officials cited "safety concerns" and a dispute over job losses as the main factors in the latest industrial action.<\/p>\n

They said that the laying off of 600 employees had led to "detrimental working conditions", including dangerous workloads and increased fatigue.<\/p>\n

An estimated 3,500 members are expected to be involved in the walkouts.<\/p>\n

RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said: "Station staff have had enough of having their livelihoods threatened by job losses and attacks on their terms and conditions.<\/p>\n

"Station staff have a vital role to play assisting vulnerable passengers access the network safely and ensuring that the tube is a safe environment for passengers.<\/p>\n

"These job cuts and attacks on conditions are going to lead to more unstaffed stations, temporary closures and rising passenger anger.<\/p>\n

"TfL has had its budgets slashed but the savings made by these station staff cuts will be negatable and will lead to shortages that are unacceptable.<\/p>\n

"This strike action will lead to the tube being shut down and we call on Mayor Sadiq Khan to meet us urgently to discuss this matter."<\/p>\n

TfL and the Department for Transport have been contacted for comment.<\/p>\n

It comes as junior doctors and consultants went on strike together for the first time in NHS history today, ramping up pressure on the Government over pay.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, teachers at one school in South Wales will stage a walkout this week as they say they are too scared to go to work after a string of attacks by "violent" pupils.<\/p>\n
