[denowashere]

£8000 less thanks to the union

£8000 less thanks to the union

The terms Royal Mail planned to impose included subtracting any sick absence from the final amount.

The vast majority of members leaving on IHR terms do so after a prolonged period of long term sick absence meaning most members would have left with next to nothing.

Think its 9 months pay less any sick you have had off leading up to dismissal ,basically you are fu---d, years of service wearing your body out to be chucked on the scrapheap claiming disability from the social,an absolute disgrace and the union agreed to it and the cabbages voted yes to accept it , just wondering whether there is any solicitors out there who would take on a case ,i mean people claim for white finger,deafness ,computer operators claim for carpel tunnel,im sure there is a case lets just say no one has done a health and safety assessment on my steppy 4 and a half hour walk ,when we changed to longer deliveries has any health and safety assessment ever been done on the effects of walking so far for so long,one thing is for sure if i ever get to that point i will not use a union solicitor.

Has that been binned woody ?? Colleague going off long term he thinks it still exists incase he ends up going down that road

[Woody Guthrie]

There is no mention of any deduction of sick absence in the new agreement.

6.4.3 Leaving Royal Mail through Ill Health (LTBIH) Where employment with Royal Mail comes to an end due to ill health and the employee meets the criteria for LtBIH with lump sum, they would receive a fixed compensation payment of 16 weeks’ compensation. In addition, the employee will receive a payment in lieu of notice and a payment in lieu of any accrued but untaken annual leave. This change will apply to ill health compensation payment authorised on/after 1st August 2023.

is there not supposed to be a 12 week taxed lump sum as well as the 16 weeks untaxed ? and the notice period is 9 weeks pay ?

yes it goes from 2 weeks to 16 weeks depending on service.

pretty sure it starts at 2 years and goes to 12 years for the 16 weeks

[Woody Guthrie]

PILON (pay in lieu of notice) is one week for every year's service up to a maximum of 12 weeks.

None of it is tax free.

not even the 16 weeks lump sum i always assumed that was tax free ? So this is why when you chase up IHR they say there is a backlog , they are just dragging it out until 1st August so they can screw us !

Would you expect anything less from this shithouse of a company and an inept union.

what happens if u do a full year on the sick and come back for a day and go off again? does that mean u would have no more sick pay to get because u have used up a years worth?

You are entitled to 6 months full pay and six months half pay in a 4 year rolling period so yes you would have used up your sick pay.

I think you will find it's 1 year full sick in any 4 year period.
