But you don't claim 8 hours o/t do you , so you claim say 4 hours and royal mail have got 16 hours work done for 12 hours.
sorry?

whats wrong with the union rep making up some hours pre strike ? seems very sensible to me, a strike is there to cause disruption but the strike hadnt happened yet. If he were to do OT post strike during Industrial action THEN id have a problem with it.
