Still new to the site so forgive me if this has already been asked/answered.
Will we get it?
Also what about this years Xmas pressure OT - its been rumored in our office that this is not happening either. If this is the case this December will be VERY tight indeed

Plenty O/T going at our DO and they can shove the Xmas turkey we get up their arse.
Do you postal workers get a Xmas turkey or is it just PF or is it a local depot thing?

Blood money for not striking for your rights £100 is a drop in the ocean compared to what is at stake for one and all!.

I heard royal mail were holding a christmas pantomime and crozier was playing scrooge.
So my guess will be next to nothing this year.

Anyone know how this bonus works, is it pro rata for part timers or a set sum regardless

Pro rata I belive £100 for FT for PT divide £100 by 40 hours and mutiply by the number of hours you work.
