£100 colleague share Xmas bonus.

Post by P_ostman »

If I understand correctly I'll still receive this part of the bonus even though currently sick on half pay?
Or do I have my wires crossed?

The Royal Mail pay directive states :

Eligibility for payment is linked to employment during the christmas pressure period.

For each full week an individual receives no pay during the pressure period ( eg unpaid special leave etc ) the individual will lose one quarter of the supplement.

For each full week where basic pay is reduced for sick pay pension rate the individual will lose one quarter of the supplement.

For each full week where basic pay is reduced for sick half pay the individual will lose one - eighth of the supplement

For each day counted midnight to midnight excluding bank holidays on which an employee takes unofficial industrial action their supplement will be abated by 10%
for official action it will be abated by 3%

It's also £200 pro-rata.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

I thought that when the deal was agreed to pay out £100 at Xmas for the colleague share fiasco that you received the full amount?
I understand the other part will be docked/not paid.

You are correct. The £100 Xmas bonus as mentioned in the Xmas agreement is affected if you are on half pay but the £100 related colleague shares is £100 pro rata for everyone and is not affected by any absence no matter how long.
