We've had that in London. Usually they make abatements for IA in the following week.
But when we are on strike on Monday (as we were last week) they make the abatement
in the same week. It gets a bit confusing. It would be more helpful if they could give
the dates for when abatements are being made on the wage slip.

I remeber they did this last time we took ind action. Its just RM being mindless and petty and throwing their toys out of the pram. Funny when its the other way around with OT you have to wait a week in arrears :mad
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

The problem is that we are now receiving our wage slips up to a week or more late
(and sometimes not at all) due to the backlog, so it can be difficult to keep track
and check that payments are correct.

How do they do it so quickly? They take ages to pay us overtime, and for Door to Doors, and yet when it is a deduction, the usual delays suddenly dont apply!
