Good luck getting any advice or help from union,they gonna tell you the “take a grievance out” line 💯….they’re just not interested in helping the day to day stuff,just self preservation I’m afraid 😔

Notifying absence and
maintaining contact

• Employees will advise of their absence
before the commencement of the shift
in accordance with the arrangements
set out for their office
• Discussion will cover the reason for
absence, likely duration and anticipated
return date and any support which Royal
Mail may be able to offer
• The employee and manager should
seek to agree an appropriate time and
date for reviewing together all but very
short absences

NATIONAL ATTENDANCE PROCEDURE 2013

See page 9
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

As you probably know RM Management are a bunch of bullies and are trying to scare you to attend a face 2face meeting.Obviously ,they are not interested in your wellbeing asking you to get a taxi !
Management haphazardly will stop pay citing unauthorised leave causing you stress and anxiety.
Invite them to your home for a meeting that way you are not refusing and they will have no grounds whatsoever to stop pay.
