delivery supp.

Post by rchta455 »

Just a quick one as I'm working out my forthcoming wages. I start a 23hr contract this week and coming from a full-time role, I'm trying to sort out my finances.
There is reference to the circa £21 del sup.
Is this something a new starter will receive and if so, is it monthly or weekly etc?

Thanks for any help :cool

Yes a new starter will get it, It's weekly but the bad news is it's pro-rata so you'll get around £13.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Thanks for the quick response.
It was expressed upon interview that there was lots of extra hours / OT available - but we shall see!
:shock:

Base your finances on your basic wage.
That way you're not dependant on constant overtime to make ends meet.

Yep, sensible advice.
I'm under no illusion that the last man in will (rightly) be the last for many further opportunities. Just got to balance further job prospects etc.

Looking forward to getting stuck in.
