£250 lump sum pro rats works out at 12.3p an hour rise which is 1.116%. Is it really that difficult to cough up another 3.6p to give us a 1.5% rise?

well don't you think the cwu should be sending whatever offer r/m have made out to the members and the all the s**t that goes with it and not just the proposals that r/m expect which we all know is bullshit , is it not the best way instead of treating members like mushrooms ? kept in the dark and fed on s**t , mind u weve got till August till we get told and the ballot forms are out . a silent union isn't good .

Mike Newbys letter which is on this site made it clear the Pay Offer is conditional on the following :

Us accepting their Pension proposal.

Us accepting trials on delivery based on start times 2 hours later , the multi bundle option , team working and seasonal viarations with no cut offs.

Also we would have to accept all legacy payments going , monthly pay , sick leave not being paid for first 3 days , VR payments reduced and changed to the IR framework. additionally every unit would have to increase their Weighted Items per Gross hour by a minuimn of 3% each of the 3 years.

Only than will they give you a one off non pensionable lump sum of £250 pro rata with a 30 minute reduction in the working week in the 3rd quarter of the year.

In year 2 providing every office has improved their office by 3% on Weighted items per Gross hour which basically is reducing the hours your office costs than you get 50% of that improvement in a pay rise i.e. 1.5%. Oh you also have to deploy what has been agreed in the Delivery trials.

Year 3 is the same.

Now if you want the union to waste time putting that out to a ballot of the members then I dispair as anyone who would accept that should not be in the union. In terms of Comms well I have seen lots of comms and all unit Reps are getting an update so they can hold gate meetings.

Now as someone who has been on strike a lot during the summer it is a lot better and hurts Royal Mail more when the traffic kicks back in around September hence why the strategy is too ballot if we have not got an agreement during August.

I'm not saying members would agree to this crap , but why hasn't the cwu been sending this out to members ? because this is the most I heard since any talks have taken place , and some members don't come on here to find stuff out because the office reps don't say nowt or even they don't know. that's what I'm saying . r/m are fast to throw they shite out asap to try and convince people .
