Answered this before but it's not necessarily £3k !

It's 10% of our salary as a baseline. 5% is based on personal performance ie did we achieve our goals agreed at the start of the financial year. These could be, for example, reduce sick levels, reduce accidents, improve efficiency.

Further 5% is based on the business performance as a whole ie financial performance, Quality etc.

It's possible to go over the 5% personal side with exceptional performance! but hardly anybody does.

All of this considered, you then pay tax on the bonus (obviously), so for an average WAM it's nowhere near £3k

I understand that you find it unfair, however we don't get paid overtime and often work more than our contracted hours. We also put up with a lot of s**t from you lot (joke).

Why not out yourselves forward as an acting manager? You can always go back to delivery when you find out the grass isn't always greener :Very Happy

Education.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

I wonder why that is? :hmmmm

"Most of what we call management consists of making it difficult for people to get their work done.”
Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.

Personally I don't mind what you get. Lower grade managers get treated like crap and bullied more than we are. Would I want it, no not really.

If managers are worth the amount they get depends on the manager. Some are and some not, same as postman.

At the end of the day if what they say about TNT deliveries are true then we are all going to get screwed. :hmmmm
