Pension

Post by Woody6 »

I have just been reading through pension update and in it says that there is going to be a consultation which by law has to be between Employer and employee,so how come it is lumped in with pay deal? or is it that they will get changes done through the back door.Can somebody let me know if the unions lawyers are looking into it,because when i signed up to the pension it was stated final salary and age 60 benefits paid.

Probably because they won't have a clue.

As I understand it there is little we can do.

Isn't there a 60 day consultation period which has not started yet.

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.
