Station Masters to launch immediate strike over unresolved issues

Colombo, October 30 (Daily Mirror) - Following a discussion today to inform the Transport Minister, the Sri Lanka Railways Station Masters' Union (SLRSMU) has decided to launch their trade union action in response to unresolved administrative issues within the Railways Department.

Addressing the media, SLRSMU President Sumedha Somarathne said the decision was made following a meeting with the union's executive committee.

"During the strike, trains will run as per schedule, and passengers will be able to travel without tickets. Station Masters have refrained from issuing tickets, handling seat reservations, and transporting parcels. The strike will not affect train services, and trains are operating as normal," he said.

The SLRSMU informed the coordinating secretary who attended the meeting on behalf of the Minister but did not provide any solutions to their administrative issues, including the delayed promotions that occur every five years.

"We informed the relevant authorities to update the train timetable, as the train service is coming to a standstill day by day, with issues such as issuing season tickets for schoolchildren and employees, frequent train cancellations, and the increase in derailments," Somarathne stated.

The strike action will be launched with minimal inconvenience to commuters.

Somarathne also urged the President and Prime Minister to intervene in the issue and take action against government officials who have misused public funds. 

Station Masters’ union set to strike over recruitment violations

By Mithun Jayawardhana

The Sri Lanka Railways Station Masters’ Union (SLRSMU) has announced it will initiate immediate trade union action in protest against the recruitment of station masters, which they claim violates established procedures. The union has declared that the strike will commence within the next 72 hours.

The SLRSMU’s decision comes in response to what it views as irregularities in the recruitment process for the post of ‘Railway Station Master.’ The union states that the agreed-upon recruitment procedure, developed after multiple rounds of negotiations, has not received approval due to the opposition from the regulatory union.

In a statement, the union expressed frustration over the government’s failure to implement the recruitment framework, designed to ensure fairness and transparency in the hiring process. The union further noted that, despite Cabinet approval for appointing Station Masters and Railway Controllers every five years through an internal departmental examination, salary conversions for controllers have been executed based on the results of an outdated exam.

The union has indicated that it will escalate its actions if the authorities fail to take prompt steps to resolve the ongoing dispute⍐.
