That is what executive action is. None of the changes of late were ‘agreed’. As long as they operate within employment law they can do a lot more than is in the proposal.Acca Dacca wrote: ↑08 May 2023, 09:32

You said they can bring everything they want in without agreement

Yes but some things cant be enforced without being agreed - like what I raisedLouBarlow wrote: ↑08 May 2023, 10:08That is what executive action is. None of the changes of late were ‘agreed’.

They cannot force us to work two hours a week unpaid this winter to get the time back next summer without an agreement
Executive action cannot enforce that without very very messy dismissals via fire and rehire
If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

Re: how union could get us a better lump sum than 500 pounds
I am not an expert in law, so won’t speak conclusively on this, but if your original contract states 40 hours for a working week, I see no reason why they couldn’t enforce that. However, I’m not sure which of our previous agreements were torn up when we violated the ‘no industrial action’ policy and whether newer agreements superseded older ones automatically.Acca Dacca wrote: ↑08 May 2023, 11:11

The seasonal variation proposal has part timers working for longer this winter though - not just the 'original FT'LouBarlow wrote: ↑08 May 2023, 12:28I am not an expert in law, so won’t speak conclusively on this, but if your original contract states 40 hours for a working week, I see no reason why they couldn’t enforce that.

Their hours havent been affected by SWW so how can you enforce someone on a 30 hour contract or even the 'new FT' on 35 hours made up from part time for instance to work more than those hours without being paid extra and only getting time back the next year?

Lou has done nothing but make assumptions in every post on this site, then accuses others of not having facts to back up their theories. It’s pretty comical.

I’m pretty sure I’m on 37 hours as a part-timer, yes. My original contract, back in the day was 40.
Also I’m not working in Birmingham. What an odd post.

Sorry, what?
If you were on 40 hours reduced down to 37 with SWW you are full time
How can you say you are a part timer?

Yes I missed a few words out there. Happy to have now clarified the situation. Any more questions? First pet? Mother’s maiden name?
