The strike, organized by the National Union of Railway, Maritime and Transport Workers (RMT), will severely affect the subway train service in London from Monday to Thursday. The main demands of the union focus on wages, working hours, fatigue management, and reducing the workweek. RMT rejected a pay rise offer of 3.4% due to the lack of a reduction in the 35-hour work schedule. Many travelers have reported significant delays, being forced to seek alternative transport.
