The tail is wagging the dog. The concession does have some substance to it. Even management's own example shows a worker being redeployed and transferred over and over again, bought and sold, pushed from pillar to post - just grateful to still have a job. The reason that LUL are in a position to offer this redeployment is that they always have vacancies for Station Assistants. And now management has an extra incentive to keep it that way.
Management retain the right to slash staffing levels, risking our safety and that of the passengers.
