Lump sum varying!

[bigtee]

How was this lump sum calculated?

Several colleagues! (Part time 25hr leave reserves) are very very p$ssed about this at our place because a few people who have only been with RM just over 12 months have recieved bigger sums than people who have worked with the company over 3 years!

Was it an worked out against the duties completed by the individual over a certain period of time? Overtime completed?

If RM want us to start with this new fond relationship, i feel it's got off on the wrong foot!

Well there seems to be some confusion, apparently the negotiators knew the formula, so did Royal Mail, the CWU and Roger Poole from ACAS and probably Brendan Barber from the TUC - inadvertently they didn't mention it to the membership - hey you can't get everything right when there is to drink and biscuits to eat.

when deciding on the right amount to pay to part timers, we look at the actual hours worked over the last year, rather than contracted hours, so that if you work additional hours this will be taken into account.

... but capped at 40.

Surely you wouldn't be expecting to be paid for all hours worked - although I did think that was RMs mantra - still only when it suits apparently.

what a farce. any other time royal mail say overtime and sa does not count when it comes to bonuses. ive worked as a part timer for royal mail for 15 years and seen the service decline vastly and just because i do no overtime i get £60 less than a run round newbie doing all the hours under the sun. not to mention the fact the agreement which i based my vote on does NOT say the bonus is pro rata, therefore the national agreeement has already been broken and every employee should have been paid £400.

Great.............If you had a DOM like ours who doesn't even know the word "Overtime" We didn't get as much as a DO that is short-staffed and HAS to do O/T
