Only if your work location meets the triggers for the £1000 worth of lump sums. Remember we are in the first quarter of the first year of a 3 year transformation plan. You need to find out if your location is due to make any cahnges before Septemebr that will trigger the paymnets.

There is no more group wide payments untill next year when CS buy back starts.

Can see us being screwed on the £1000 lump sum. We're well ahead of most offices. We have got CDV's, PDA's, walk sequence machines in and using them.
Have we seen the cash. Noooooooooo, apparently nobody gets it until you meet "efficiency saving".

We're being shafted again. The agreement doesn't state that we have to meet savings to bag a share for the £1000.

Anyone care to clear this up once and for all?

:crazy: You've already cleared it Up. shafted is the word I believe! For those of us who have been with this company for far too long--no agreements are kept--and if they ever seem to be getting near the point were they have to be honoured, they move the goalposts! (anybody else rememeber all the bonus schemes?)

You are correct, its not linked to savings at all.

£200 when non sequenced mail revision comes in

£600 when sequenced mail revision comes in

£200 when WS revision is working BUT NO LATER than 6 weeks after implementation.

Just to clarify this 100% (as a lot of my colleagues have been chatting about this of late) could someone put this in really simple terms i.e define the actual procedures that have to be in place, so I can let them know. To be honest I've heard so many differing stories myself I'm feeling a bit bamboozled by it all.

You've just quoted the simplest way to explain it.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
