PBS supplement

Post by Stormproof »

For those that get it......will we still be getting the PBS or has that gone aswell? I've read half the agreement and am so angry I could'nt read anymore.
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

The way I read it, we will still get it, but new recruits will not.

Productivity Bonus Supplement (I think).
It's a bonus some offices get for jobs that were cut about the time of the Way Forward Agreement 2000.
Some offices get nothing and others vary. some seem to be paid weekly, and others monthly.

There's a new supplement of £8/wk for all mail centre OPGs - existing and new entrants. If a PBS bonus is being paid at the moment it will be reduced by £8, so if your existing PBS is under £8 or non-existent you will lose your PBS but gain a bigger supplement; if it's over £8 you'll still get a residual PBS payment as well as the new supplement but your total money will stay the same. It's on page 61 of the document.
