AGENDA FOR GROWTH AGREEMENT – PROPOSED PAY ARRANGEMENTS

In the event of a yes vote in the ballot we have been discussing with the company the earliest opportunity for implementing the pay increases and back pay due.

Given that the ballot concludes on the 5th February 2014, the company has now confirmed that subject to ratification of the Agreement the following pay arrangements will be implemented:

• The 3% basic pay increase flowing through to all normal allowances, scheduled attendance and overtime rates, will be introduced for weekly paid staff on the 21st February 2014. For monthly paid staff these increases will apply from the 28th February 2014.

• The above mentioned increases are backdated to the 1st April 2013. All back pay due from these increases will also be paid to weekly paid staff on the 21st February 2014 and monthly paid staff on the 28th February 2014.

• The additional increase to overtime rates over 10 hours is backdated to the 1st April 2013 and any back pay due from this will also be paid on the 21st February 2014 for weekly paid staff and the 28th February 2014 for monthly paid staff.

This part of the Agreement was designed to eliminate the shortfall between the hourly overtime rate over 10 hours and the national standard hourly rate for the grade. It has now been confirmed that this increase applies to all CWU Grades where this shortfall currently exists, including MGV Drivers for whom overtime rates after 8 hours until now were based on OPG rates.

• The Agreement also provides for improvements in SA holiday pay in Royal Mail core operations and these increases are also backdated to the 1st April 2013. However, as these require individual calculation, payroll has advised that the arrears will take some further time to arrange and a payment date will be notified shortly.

In notifying CWU Branches, Representatives and members of these proposed payment dates, it must be remembered that these are dependent on the ratification of the Agreement in the current ballot.
