Re: S/A lump sum payments
Does anyone know how it is calculated? Mine has gone down since I have been doing less SA but went down more than I expected

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Re: S/A lump sum payments
It is a payment for when you are not leave an can not do SA. It is based on the previous years average SA, although it doesn't seem as simple as just an average. I can't work out exactly how it is calculated.

Re: S/A lump sum payments
It is just "averaged".When Scheduled Attendance came with the "Way Forward",the idea was that this payment was a supplement to cover your holidays and Bank Holidays.The SA is actually contracted,and done from last year.The more you signed for the more the supplement.Twice a year too.

Re: S/A lump sum payments
Can anybody explain in very simple terms just how this lump sum is calculated?
Ive done an average of 4 hrs S.A. a week for the last 12 months yet got only £52, i realise i'll get another lump sum in another 6 months but i'm assuming this will be just as pathetic, do these figures sound right to anyone else?

Re: S/A lump sum payments
if i remember right when we had the way forward agreement we had a wage rise on basic pay and overtime but not on S/A,this payment is something to do with the difference between O/T and S/A. if you check your wages you'll see theres virtually no difference between O/T and S/A nowadays,basically thats why i stopped doing it,why sign up for something you guarantee you'll do,when you can pick and chose O/T when it suits you for the same rate of pay,plus this must be the only union in history who negotiated a deal that pays less the more you do!!!! ( ten hour O/T rule)

Re: S/A lump sum payments
Might it be 5% of your SA payments, and meant to compensate for not having time off for leave when working SA, or something like that ?
