The ‘Dignity for Drivers’ report was prompted by the @ASLEFunion women’s committee demand for action over access to toilet facilities and time to use them when required during the working day’ Jim Baxter @ASLEF_Scotland

This afternoon @AlexRowleyFife welcomed ASLEF members to the Scottish Parliament to launch our Dignity for Drivers report. Train drivers shared their personal experiences with MSPs and industry leaders as we call for change and dignity for all.

Our four key asks for Dignity for Drivers this #WorldToiletDay. It's not acceptable that workers can't access safe toilets and hygiene facilities during their working day. We call on the industry to make a change now.

Read our survey and report about the impact of not having access to toilet facilities: buff.ly/4eSO8cN


ASLEF Scotland Reposted

More than half of train drivers surveyed have had to request an emergency toilet break while. Many also shared concerns that if they call for an emergency break they would be disciplined. We're calling for Dignity for Drivers so that drivers can access toilets when they need to.

Dignity for Drivers means access to hygiene and toilet facilities based on drivers' individual needs - whether that's menstruation, colostomy bags, IBS or any other condition. This #WorldToiletDay we're calling on the industry to provide appropriate facilities.

Thank you @rach_hopkins for supporting ‘Dignity for Drivers’

Delighted to host @ASLEFunion in Parliament today for the launch of their ‘Dignity for Drivers’ report. Ensuring everyone has access to proper toilet facilities is key to safety and dignity at work. You can read more on the report here 👉 aslef.org.uk/news/dignity-d…

We're calling for dignity for drivers. To mark #WorldToiletDay we're launching a new report highlighting the lack of toilet and hygiene facilities for train drivers and the impacts this can have. As this driver said, it's degrading. It's time for change.

Train drivers should be able to access toilets and hygiene facilities when they need to. It's part of making our railway a welcoming workplace for everyone. This #WorldToiletDay we're calling for Dignity for Drivers.

The Rail Public Ownership Bill has now been passed by the Welsh and Scottish Parliaments 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🚝 This will allow both Governments to keep their services under public ownership – and is a big step forward on our shared ambition to deliver for passengers in Scotland and Wales.

We agree with @tonyvaughanMP in his question to Parliament this morning - investing in infrastructure and moving more freight on rail are really important for growing businesses and growing local economies. Let's make use of all the available capacity. #InvestInRail

Great to see investment in rail announced in the budget: fully-funded projects, that ASLEF has campaigned for, which will support local growth and connect up communities. A welcome change from 14 years of unfunded falsehoods and broken Tory promises. #Budget2024 #InvestInRail

3 year’s ago today we published A Vision for Scotland’s Railway. It remains the only comprehensive document on the future of Scotland’s railways. Time for the @scotgov to publish their rail strategy policy
