O/T Claim.
A good quote from our DOM this morning. After a fatal accident on the bypass yesterday the town was grid locked for hours causing many of our rural drivers to be back late. Most of us tried to claim between 40mins and a hr this morning as all the managers had gone home by the time we got back. The rural line manager went to the DOM to get the O/T sheet at which point the DOM said " I'm not paying them over time it wasn't a RM problem so why should we pay " . Even the line manager looked at his feet at that point
and to be fair to him he did book all the O/T down , so i'll wait and see if it gets paid next week

simples
section 13 employment rights act
unlawful deduction of wages
if you do not get paid put in a disagreement and state the money is to be paid within 7 days or an ET1 claim will be issued
lets see what the dsm has to sy on that one

Luv a DOM.
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

The first time I don't get paid for my overtime then I won't do any more.

Re: O/T Claim.
i cant understand why people are letting royal mail get away with not paying overtime/excess delivery
where are the reps
do they not know the legislationon on the unlawful with holding of pay etc??
seems not
staff look up to us reps to sort these things out for them
ime gobsmacked
they tried this in my branch area, i sent the dsm an ultimatum that this policy would stop or an ET1 claim would be issued.
i do not get that many complaints now on this policy
if you dont stand up and say NO
they will keep on doing it
