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: Romec Engineers and Romec Administrative Grades / Vehicle Services Technical Grades
The purpose of this LTB is to clarify the position of Romec Engineers and Romec Administrative grades / Vehicle Services Technical grade employees regarding the official disputes due to take place with the various businesses within the Royal Mail Group, and to also provide guidance to Branch Officials on this matter.
As far as the legal position is concerned Romec and Vehicle Services employees are not part of the official dispute. They have not been balloted for Industrial Action as no trade dispute exists with either of the employers. Therefore they should report for work as normal. Any Industrial Action on the part of either group of employees will be deemed unofficial.
However we are acutely aware that many of our Romec and Vehicle Services members will have family members and close friends, never mind long standing work colleagues, who will be taking part in the Industrial Action who may also be part of the official picket lines at their places of work. Under these circumstances it will be a matter for the individuals own conscience as to whether they decide to cross the picket line, as it will be for any individual whether they are a member of the Union or not. On this particular point I am having separate discussions with both Romec and Vehicle Services senior management to see if an understanding can be reached that will allow sensitive and sympathetic consideration to be given to any such occurrence(s).
Whilst understanding the complexities and anxieties of the situation our official advice to all Branches is to stand the pickets aside and invite our Romec and Vehicle Services colleagues to go into work. It is important for all of us to remain organised and disciplined throughout this dispute and for our members to respect the position of their Romec and Vehicle Services colleagues in what will be very difficult circumstances for all of them.
Branches are requested as a matter of urgency to give this LTB the widest possible circulation within their Branch including all units involved in each of the disputes.
