Bus Driver Fights Heat-Related Pay Cut | London News

Published 2 days, 2 hours ago
Description

A London bus driver, fearing retaliation, exposed how his pay was docked after he refused to drive a bus with a broken AC unit during a 34°C heatwave — a decision he says was backed by the Mayor and TfL commissioner. Despite company policy claiming a small cab fan made the bus “fit for service,” the driver insisted it was dangerously hot, risking health for himself and passengers. When he returned the bus, he was told he’d be unpaid for the rest of his shift — a move he calls a direct violation of safety guidelines and professional responsibility.
