A colleague of mine has asked me to ask this question.
Does historical seniority apply ?
Basically, my colleague has had 3 stints working for Royal Mail.
The Post Office 1980-1997 working on counters.
Royal Mail/Consignia 2000-2005 in delivery.
Royal Mail/RMG 2008- to date in delivery.
Do all the years working for Royal Mail count towards seniority ?

No to seniority but yes to holidays...Way Forward Agreement 2002
Section 6 Way of Working
Para 6.
All service within an appropriate grade whether on permanent or temporary basis will count for
seniority purposes, with the exception of any periods worked on a casual contract, or during a career
break or sabbatical. Unpaid leave will count provided there is no break in contract. Service after age
60 will continue to count. However service must be continuous for seniority purposes, with periods
prior to the break in contract (due to re-employment, for example) not generally included, unless
there are exceptional circumstances applying to particular cases that are agreed at local level.
All periods of service on a temporary or permanent contract (with periods of casual service included only if
they run continuously into a temporary or permanent contract), except for those on unpaid leave, SPPR, or
with HM Forces exceeding 15 days, will count towards calculating leave due. Previous periods of PO service
may be counted for this purpose.

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.
