This has come up before after strike days, you are not allowed to book any overtime to help clear the backlog; suits me down to the ground as i never want to do overtime.

However i do feel it is petty of them and in my opinion willfull delay by Royal Mail not to do everything they can to get the mail delivered.

But as usual one rule for them and !!!!

I am almost sure RM have decided to cancel the Sunday working at our office(Watford)all s/a,so that'll go down like a lead balloon,i could see that coming a while ago,RM are hardly going to let us strike till noon on Saturday,then do o/t Sat & Sun only to strike again on the Monday.

That'll save them even more money.The S/A's are contracted so can they do that?

personally i think its VITAL to follow up the strikes with a strict no-go on OT lads, its ridiculous to go helping them out after a strike, totally defeats the point. with the 4 days then the continuous rolling strikes and NO OT!!!! and ..do your job properly.......... they may crack!!!!

Could'nt agree more,i have not done any o/t for 10 weeks,we have very little anyway........one thing that does anger me are the casuals and agency workers,it would be good if we could stop them from working during IA to start with,then at a later get rid of them altogether and employ more full time staff which means more union members.

Radical and fantasy thinking i know :dance

Our Dim is stating that it is in our contracts ..... to do overtime! Remember ..... if yours does the same then laugh in his face(s). Slavery has been abolished - O/T IS ..... WAS ..... & ALWAYS SHALL BE ..... VOLUNTARY!
