Union are asking you not to engage with RM

It’s worth bearing in mind that even if there was a queue of people wanting it - 5000-6000 redundancies amounts to about 6% so relative to a small to medium size delivery office its about 2 of every 40 employees who would get it

Of course some offices could have more and some less than that dependant

I don't get it. They probably lose 2 people from our depot every 2 or 3 months. Why would they pay people off when people naturally exit Royal Mail.

I doubt they will even offer it at ours, we are 25% understaffed.

Probably new entrants on shitier conditions/contracts.

Where have the Union asked this? Today??

Is this more to do with reducing the amount of Union Members within RM do you all think? It would certainly be an advantage to them.

[HairyHobbit]

Are there any statements or documents with more information about the terms?

Certainly hits the union in the pocket - probably near 6%less revenue through lost subs with reduced headcount

There's probably not a single MC or DO that's not understaffed

I'm not sure if anyone elses royal mail app is doing it, but when you log in, a new tile called "preference exercise" pops up for a split second, then disappears. I wonder if that's what the redundancy tab will be?

[Rommagic]

Not on the app yet?.
