Re: seniority
Does the word 'bollox' mean anything to you,this has to go down as one of the classics.
Your manager,and no doubt with the help of some dodgy posties there is talking bollox.
Might be summin to do with you doing 30yrs me thinks.

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.

Others will comment in this thread,what i would like to know is,would there be a 'local agreement' which would be that those who transfer in have to wait a year,or would that be near on impossible?

Now there are specialist jobs like some EX PHG ones,but for basic duties the above applies.
FILLING OF VACANCIES/JOBS
1.The key requirement is to ensure that all jobs are filled by individuals with the right skills for the job, and that this is done in a way that both takes account of personal preference, suitability and minimises disruption to the customer and employees.
“Seniority will be used to fill the majority of jobs, because the Business recognises the value of employees’ experience and length of service. Those jobs that require more specialist skills have been identified and are listed at Section 15. They will be filled using an objectively-based selection process. The necessary training will be given prior to appointment”.

Re: seniority
More digging and good news,page 26...
13.1This agreement is mandatory and sets out the way that seniority will be defined for local units on and from the date of this Agreement. Any local agreements that conflict with this agreement will cease on and from that date.
13.1Because seniority is based on length of service there will be no need to adjust seniority when employees transfer between offices, whether on a voluntary or compulsory basis.
13.1Lists based on seniority assessed on the new basis will be produced, maintained and displayed in all units within the resourcing area. Because seniority will in future be transferable between locations and based on length of service it will be relatively straightforward to integrate employees from outside of the area (e.g. level transferees) into these lists.
