In my opinion, and from what Dingo and others have posted then yes it has had some effect. When the pay round started Royal Mail weren't willing to discuss pay rises until the BT2010 issue had been sorted. At least now they have made a closed 3 year offer. Even though it was turned down, it is still movement, lets hope the CWU keep the pressure on, Bristol and Bridgewater and 20 others units seem to be doing so.

Why? The managers union negotiated the bonus scheme years ago and that is why they get a bonus, which I guess is based on profit, either as a whole or as a unit. What surprises me is that RM haven't managed to find a way to squirm out of paying it, either way their bonus doesn't help our case whether they deserve it or not is debatable.

Ok maybe not knowing what individual manager received but surely it must be transparent in RM accounts. Is it???

It may well be shown but probably lumped in with the overall salary bill which doesn't tell you anything.

If my managers are on a minimum of £32000, Royal Mail are just throwing the money away really by giving them another £2000. It wont motivate them to go the extra mile. It wont make them learn a new skill or try to communicate with their colleagues any better. The parts of their job description that they ignore, they will still ignore. Wont stop them lying. Wont get them to listen.
