do all offices get a monthly bonus?

Post by Edward Hunter »

In London we do, and it varies quite a bit afaik. Some offices get £40 others £140! Hardly fair as we all do the same job. Ours is called PBS which i think is short for Productivity Bonus Scheme. Do you get one and roughly how much

Our DO was attached to a mail centre and we used to get over £80/month PBS. After SDD and when The MC got closed down and moved, because RM made 3 MC's into 1 MC, We now receive £43/month PBS. (In West London/Middlesex)
