To recognise and address the serious concerns with the MAN appliances, the Union has appointed the President to work in conjunction with Locals, Members, and the National Fleet Manager, to resolve issues raised.
This is not a quick fix, and is a genuine attempt by both parties to fix long-standing problems.
Members are asked to continue to report any faults to both the Union President and the National Fleet Manager.
We look forward to a positive outcome for members.
