If Manpower staff are directly employed by Manpower it is completely up to them what they pay their staff.bellend boy wrote:hi we have just had a load of people start at our depot this week very possibly from manpower?have heard a few stories regarding there pay some people are saying these people are getting more money than the angard monkeys for doing the same job?is this even legal?anyone here able to clear up these rumours or is yet again someones backside doing to much chatting again in here?
I am not trying to justify it or comment on how fair it is...just the legal position.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Why are Manpower also putting staff forward for the Royal Mail?
When I was there last year, there were Manpower staff who were getting 2p less than the rest of us directly employed by the Royal Mail.

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.

i was under the impression that angard/reed were now the only ones that could supply RM temps...obviously the mess they have made is now hurriedly being cleaned up by manpower!

But Manpower told me that they started recruiting for Xmas back in October. So I don't think they're just clearing up the mess.kietr wrote:i was under the impression that angard/reed were now the only ones that could supply RM temps...obviously the mess they have made is now hurriedly being cleaned up by manpower!

Where I was working (I've left thank God) there was different pay for angard Xmas, Manpower Xmas, Angard long term casuals and permanent although we were all doing the same work. The Manpower staff were getting less than the Angard Xmas staff.
