Is there where they tell us were not getting paid for D2D anymore and have to absorb 6 lots instead of 3 into the delivery?

with what has gone on with the latest agreements it is going to very hard to sell more d2ds for less money ,if any,presumably we will get a vote on this so unless we are financially rewarded its a no go.however royal mail will most probably dangle a one off payment in which people will accept without thinking what the consequences are.royal mail will in all liklihood offer to do competitors d2ds ,deliver 52 weeks of the year.all profits going into royal mail coffers and not in ours.

yes exactly,once any per item payment is gone the games up
we will get (more) shafted
however as always,the usual idiots will just see a lump sum adnd think its great
last lump sum i saw mentioned for D2D's want even worth a years payments as we stand now

There was not a briefing on door to door for either divisonal or branches.

All that happened was a conference call which was only about reporting on door to door at christmas and the fact royal mail want to not make it optional. The cwu were looking for extra payment and talks are still progressing.

With regards to negotations on a new door to door national agreement the cwu is not at that point albeit intial and perlimary discussions have started.

With the amount of work we do over Christmas, we have no time for D2D's

The union really needs to get this sorted quickly otherwise I can see lots of cut offs this Christmas
