Discussion

The requirement to close the ticketing offices of London Tube and the number of external factors affecting the closure can be considered using the PESTLE analysis according to Huczynski & Buchanan’s model of ‘The Terrain of Organisational Behaviour’. Following are the key external factors which may leave London with its organisational effectiveness and quality of working life of London’s residents.

Individual Factors

On individual level, it is firmly said that the ticketing offices in London lacks the number of individual which buy the tickets to travel in the tube. On a larger basis, the tickets are said to be bought from the ticketing machines placed at the platform, or, a person can buy the tickets on the website as well. This factor so far can conclude that the number of ticketing offices and the staff employed in it are generally replaced by ticketing machines which however leaves them to be a burden on the government (Rachel Holdsworth, 2015).

Group Factors

The group factors which affect the closure of the ticketing offices in London consist of a number of comments from the key stakeholders of London Underground. The closure of the ticketing offices may result in a loss of 950 jobs as mentioned by the Former General Secretary for the RMT Union.

““The reality is these people (those that could lose their jobs) don't just sit behind glass and sell tickets. They are competent people that can get people out in the event of an evacuation, not just a terror attack, a signal failure, a line closure or station closure. The proposed ticket office closures will result in around 950 job losses.”

Furthermore, the general public of London have condemned the decision of firing all these people as on one side, the UK’s government is trying to reduce the unemployment level, and on the other, it is firing such prominent number of workers which is totally against to what they want (Stefan Stern, 2013).

Structural Factors
