EVR

Post by robbertwhitton »

A common thread all over the place,for those like me done 40 years and simply had enough,together with hip and knee issues that will need addressing soon,would be more than happy to go,to make the savings our boss keeps on that he will have to make,is evr a realistic option in some units if it’s made aware?maybe boss doesn’t think I’m serious? Should I go higher than him? How does it work?

I doubt that there will be any evr in the short term or at least till this new agreement is implemented if accepted. I retired a year early . I live on my lump sum and Rm Pension untill the State pension kicks in. I just glad I managed to avoid Xmas pressure.

Stand a better chance of finding the holy grail then getting EVR you get 6 months full pay and 6 months half pay in a 4 year period .after 3 surgeries and my doctor writing letters to management ,by the way you have to pay for the letter, I could not get IHR as further surgery could fix my problem due to COVID surgery appointment is next October sick pay finished and so did I .couple of years to state pension so got lump sum and RM pension more than enough to see me through .best thing I have ever done health improving and enjoying life . I wish you good luck for the future but remember length of service means nothing to RM management . :Very Happy

Must be individual doctors but I never paid for my doctors letter. He couldnt have been more helpful in communicating with RM/OH Assist. I have to say as well when I had the phone appointment with the OHAssist doctor it was quite straight forward and he was very supportive and made his recommendation for IHR within minutes. This was autumn 2019, after the decision was made I was given IHR within two weeks.
