4.75% this
year and the rate of inflation plus 0.75% in 2009 to non-driving grades is
worse than a pay rise given to other employees at the company. Bob Crow,
general secretary of the RMT, said: "This is the second year in a row that
lower paid grades have been asked to swallow a smaller rise and our members are
telling us they have had enough. Arriva Trains Wales has not long handed its
shareholders £14 million in dividends but it is the workforce that creates its
profits and it’s time for them to get a fair share in the fruits of this
success. It is obscene that, while the company is paying directors £230,000, we
have to go to the Low Pay Commission to discuss the problem of poverty wages at
the company."
