£400 flexibility.

Post by leader »

Have any delivery offices out there signed off the flexibility agreement and triggered the £400 pay out due in April?

For the record it not looking good in my office.

Why not?

Not entered into talks yet with my DOM, as no release yet, hoping to discuss friday as he said this week and he is not in most saturdays.

What £400 Bogus

Post by traww »

In our office not heard a dickie bird from managers or union about anything since we went back after the AI.

Judging by the number of people booking o/t and off sick I don't think we will ever make it - RM knows this and it is most likely cheaper for them to pay the o/t than the £400 BOGUS.

Gives them a stick to beat us with too for not being compliant.

It is possible that unless all the criteria are met then they are unable to fulfil their part of the bargain whilst we are prepared to BUT unable to because they aren't capable of providing the tools to do the job, such as new equipment, drop boxes, sufficient seats to convey, sufficient time to convey pouches etc etc. It would then put the onus on them to meet the conditions.

Phase 2 of the agreement should only absorb indoor work. Why are you going back to a 6 day a week during the summer months?

:cfo :lfo must effing love you lot, why in God's name would you agree to work for free, if you really want you can come over here and do my job and I'll just take the pay.

I really don't believe you, maybe you mean something else. :roll:
