500 Lump Sum and 900 Minimum Escrow Payment Confirmed

Post by LouBarlow »

It will be interesting to see how the escrow payment shakes out, given how many people claim to have left the business since the agreement came in.

Confirmed by who exactly ?

You can't blame staff for being highly anxious/suspicious about this issue.

The CWU. The author of the tweet in the OP. Why would staff be anxious or suspicious?

Is the escrow pay pro rata?
If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

No it doesn’t, if it’s a minimum then that means it could be more

Absolutely. It relies on the number of staff in the business at the time of the payment. If the figures of people jumping ship are true, then it could be more that 900. Whatever anyway. Blood money for what this ridiculous job has become. For supposed unskilled workers it takes a lot of skill or should I say agility to get done on time with the current workload. Unachievable completely ridiculous.

CORRECT 20% Tax and 12% National Insurance is removed from the figures
Not so great then are they in light of current postal situation re UK

Income over about £970 per week only attracts national insurance at 2%.
