Sick Pay

[Roddy Scott]

union rep told me 2 days no pay on 2nd absence in 12 months
4 days no pay on 3rd absence in 12 months
3 days no pay on 4th absence in 12 months

wasnt aware of the last 2 parts

So looks like you've fallen foul of the 3rd absence rule it's f***ing s**t isn't it, apparently the sick arrangements are supposed to be part of the talks CWU are going to be discussing.

yeah i had one day off in january with a headcold, then last october i had a fall on delivery carrying a massive parcel across the road, busting my elbow. Horrible twats. Before this year my record was impeccable

The next kick in the teeth is going to be you'll be awarded a next stage I'm assuming you're going to need a few weeks off after a hernia op, as you say twats.

Oh yeah I thought accidents at work were supposed to be exempt from being penalised, wonder if there's any chance of getting your deduction of sick pay reinstated due to that previous absence.

Anyone that has an accident at work (non blameworthy) is exempt from being penalised!
They tried it with me, but had to reimburse me the following week.
Don't let them tell you otherwise
