I just phoned HR to find out about something. I asked about the bonus. they told me it was only £100 and it is prorate depending on if you are sick or not. I thought that was completely incorrect??

they did say it will be on the 18th though
4 Christmas Pay Supplement

The Christmas pay supplement of £100 for full time OPG and OSGs (pro-rated for part timers) will be paid on Friday, 18 December. The eligibility criteria for the Christmas bonus payment will be the same as last year, based on the four December weeks (commencing 23 November). In the unlikely event of any industrial action the abatement criteria will be drawn from the PBS agreement.

The separate payment of £100 (pro rata for PT employees) agreed in the National Joint Statement - New Incentive Arrangements June 2012 will also be paid on Friday, 18 December.

But it is perfectly acceptable for offices to have such deals for covering overtime
The practice of paying a certain amount of OT hourage to OPGs who take out additional walks irrespective of finish time should IMO be replaced by an 'Additional Walk Payment' which would be far easier to justify and could be an integral part of the wages structure either seasonally or throughout the year.
