Sick pay

Post by jd9442 »

Worked with Royal Mail for a few years
Transferred from 20 hour contract at one office to 27 hour contract at another office
Couple months in to my new role I went on and am currently still on the sick, for a month now
They haven't 'switched my contract over' as of yet and as such I'm being paid 20 hours still, will I be owed 7 hours per week pay? If so how do I get that?

First of all have you joined the CWU, I hope so because thats who you need.

Contact your Local Rep, or Area Rep as they will sort out any money owing, however, it will come down to various things which cannot be cleared up by posting on here.

Did you sign a new contract?
Was the transfer based on a permanent change of hours?
or perhaps was the transfer based on you claiming 7 hours overtime ?
Did you transfer before you became sick?

Can't actually remember if I signed a contract.
Completed the transfer through successfactors based on permanent change of hours.
Transferred, worked a month, went sick.
They are paying me at old hours.
