All the SA's in my office finish next Monday, so I guess 15th May will be our final lump sum.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Most of the SA in my office has been replaced with standard hours on a duty, still I don't care because I don't do any OT.

K66yla what is the CWU doing about this at your place :shock: Have they just accepted it? We have a national agreement that says reasonable local earnings must remain, why is your branch not balloting and fighting for your terms and conditions :crazy:

It's contractual overtime - you agree (contract) to do a specified period or periods
of overtime, usually every week, for which you get paid a slightly higher rate than
normal overtime. But you don't get a paid break during SA.
The advantage for you is that it is guaranteed (until they give you 4 weeks notice
to cease it), and the advantage for RM is that they know it will be covered.

Depends whether any of that work is SA. On your payslips it will say "Weekday Scheduled Attendance" instead of "Weekday overtime First/Over 10 hours". If the work you have been doing is just normal overtime then you won't get an SA lump sum.
