You may well be technically wright, but the perception within delivery offices is that delivery workers were SHAFTED !
You can argue as much as you like about the wording of BT2010, but you'll be wasting your breath.
A few in D.O.'s gained
A few in D.O.'s stayed the same
The majority in D.O.'s seen their take home pay fall & their workload increase.

But the point of the headbanging is staff in a MC did not see a £20 rise.
3+ years on and people are still spouting the same nonsense.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

I agree, I think they only got £8

But that £8 was derived by pooling all the D2D monies + NDA monnies then deviding it up between all the staff
Delivery people who were delivering say 3 item @1.67p X 600 calls would have got £30
Now they deliver 6 items X 600 calls for £20 ( this would have been £60 under the old system of payment )
A large increase in workload for a decrease in take home pay
Add that to NDA going and you aint looking too happy
Then you see the office "PHG" getting paid £20 for NOT delivering any items
The firms duty getting £20 for not delivering any items
Then you hear that the mail centres get paid £8 for not delivering any items

Well, lets just say you'll feel a little bit agrieved

The number of DO staff far outweigh MC staff.So even if EVERY MC worker voted for bt2010 (and i didn't btw),then if DO staff had all voted against it then it wouldn't of got in!
You want someone to blame,look around you on Monday...

:neutral:
same as it ever was...

While it may be true in your case, your assertion that it is the case for the majority is simply made up.
You have no idea and I very much doubt if all DOs are doing 6 D2D every week.

And how many MCs have shut and the staff had to suffer job losses and relocations compared to DOs?
You think DOs were shafted by BT2010.
Maybe they were maybe they weren't.
But it was 3 years ago. Let's move on.

Are both sides still talking or is it just a case of waiting until after 31st?

Thats the problem, a LARGE precentage of CWU members feel agrieved and wronged
3 years later and its still a raw nerve.

That is why a lot of D.O. staff I talk to refuse to back the CWU this time. "I won't be voting to strike. We got shafted last time" is all I hear.

I understand members concerns and I am wary of what the likes of Bob Gibson will dream up in any agreed future delivery model but if the union look weak in a IA Ballot then its everyone for themselves and I dont expect that to result in anything other than a shoogly peg.
