PEC to negotiate more holidays.

Post by fishtank »

29 CATEGORY A:
This Conference instructs the incoming Postal Executive that Conference notes there has been no increase to Royal Mail Annual Leave since April
2000.
In April 2009 the Legal Minimum Statutory leave increased from 4.8 weeks (24 days) to 5.6 weeks (28 days).

Conference therefore calls on the PEC to negotiate an increase in the Annual Leave in line with at least the percentage increase in the Legal Statutory Leave. This policy
should flow through to all Postal Group Businesses.

The time has come to stop turning the other cheek, time to stop shaking our heads in bitter dismay, time to stop mumbling our angry words.
The time has come for union.

Don't you mean the pay cut they won for us after 4 months of intense negotiations. Our negotiators are like sheep to their wolves.
RM - We've no money!
CWU - OK.

A month later RM Letters post profits of £121 Million.
I think I'm on the wrong side.

You sir are a genius. Why hasn't anyone thought of this before? Christmas Day specific D2Ds.

I mean virtually everyone's at home. RM could charge a stonking premium! Brilliant idea, Fishtank. Is a letter to the Courier in order?
