you can use discreet details as basically RM don't want people telling tales outside the office . However if it's a precautionary suspension it would be deemed a serious matter which should be flagged to either area rep or branch .

You are entitled to representation , that's RM's own standards , they''re just hoping for a weak / incompetent / corrupt etc office rep as they are under pressure from bullying Senior / Area Management .

AFAIK , something to do with theft , fraud , willful etc delay :hmmmm - basically you are accused of an offence so serious that they can't have you in the building ??

Don't play RM's games , they'd rather have you worried at home to soften you up and hope you'd be daft enough to believe all their B/S as they are under pressure from on high to reduce the head count by fair or foul means . If it's flawed in any way they won't like you telling tales out of class :hmmmm but that's their problem NOT yours .

The Union's job is to find something wrong - End of - whether RM like that or not , it is their problem . secondly a manager's cards can be marked , next time the union will have his number , that's just good trade unionism ; simple as .
