This agreement needs to be carefully looked at because there are a number of issues which haven't been addressed.

Delivery Spans - open ended
Saturdays - open ended - there is no sign of this Saturday matrix for 1 in four off
Pay - most delivery officers will take a cut because of D2D
Lump Sums - when not part of the Colleague Share, which is already ours by right, the other sums are dependent on the introduction and successful deployment of working practices WHICH MAY NEVER HAPPEN
Revision Tools - sight unseen


There are even more issues being left to local agreement with revision tool workshops for local reps - so why do we need all this release time when in fact it is the local rep who will be dealing with the local issues?
Totally agree, too much of the agreement is too vague. I cannot vote for this agreement in its current state. Look what happened with the vague flexibility agreement, we got shafted by managers interpretation of it. If this gets voted in there is no hope for us.

The deal seems to be conquer and divide, mail centre staff may vote yes but most do's may vote no. Mail centre staff happen to vote the deal through i don't think they'll get much sympathy when half the m'c close in the near future.

(Hope this is right guys, if not please amend)
Trying to put it as easy to understand for members without them having to read the whole agreement.

1) No cap on d2d's.
2) 1 hour off present working week, to 39 hours a week.
3) Pay rise of 2% 1st year, 1.4% 2nd year and 3.5% 3rd year.
4) £20.60 for d2d's but including any allowances e.g early shift, driving.
5) bonuses of £400 when revision is done in office, £536 in 2011 and £536 in 2012. Also a £1000 bonus spread as £200 straight away, £600 when walk sequencing machine are being used in your office and a further £200 when 100% of office have walk sequencing machines.
6) 3 hour 30 minute delivery spans to finish with delivery spans being agreed locally.
7) No private cars on delivery.

Any more guys??
Cannot uderstand what (Number 7 No private cars on deliver has got to do with this agreement. I Know one thing all you suckers can see ££££ signs already, your halfway to the shops already. if you vote yes to this, you need your heads testing and you will get what you deserve later on, that's when the moaning will start when you have spent up.........a Vext Jenny...
