The delivery supplement

Post by postghost »

Do we still get the full amount per week if you are off sick or on dependency leave?

Yes
To coincide with the introduction of the national agreement unit payments will cease and the 3 items per week cap will be removed. D2D Monies will be turned into a delivery supplement paid 52 weeks a year for all delivery employees (OPG and ORR) pro rata for part time employees.

I could be wrong but after 8 weeks continous sick leave it will not be paid.
That was the rule with allowances.

20 percent of the delivery supplement or 20 percent of your total wage?

Sounds like you were given day off without pay, did you agree to this or aware the leave was given on that basis.

Getting back to the heading............ spare a thought for all the casuals that are now employed by RM
0 hour contracts for 13 weeks = NO delivery supplement :hmmmm :hmmmm
Then re-employ them for another 13 weeks and guess what, still no delivery supplement, hardly fair as these
poor sods are doing the same work as the rest of us :wave :wave
