Current holiday periods - April to Sept

Post by HTPostman »

No, not another ‘when are we getting our holiday pay thread’ but we are now into the next 6 month period and I’ve not seen anywhere the individual periods.

At least with the October to March 6 month period we knew the start/finish date for each monthly period.
The day is gonna come when we’re all gonna have to testify.

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.

Those are the monthly periods for the 6 month blocks just gone.

Appreciate it should start on X date for the current monthly periods but this is RM.

It may not matter at the moment what the future qualifying periods are. The intention in the 'agreement'
(extract below) was to hopefully have PSP updated by now for holiday pay to be calculated automatically
when you took the leave, so say for example you've just taken Easter leave the qualifying periods would
go back to possibly include Oct/Nov last year.

Still saying that it would still be handy for RM/CWU to publish
the forthcoming qualifying periods so that people can monitor the process for upcoming
summer holiday periods this year. I'm wondering if RM are being a bit reticent on it
so that people can't 'plan' their O/T so they qualify for the holiday pay because the
payment is for 'regular' O/T - if you have to plan it, then it's not regular OT?
We jointly anticipate that a system will be in place with effect for the 2022/23
holiday year and will provide further joint updates accordingly and share the detail as
the system is developed. Changes to the payroll system will be broadly aligned with
the key principles set out in the section headed ‘Definition of Regular Overtime’. The
joint ambition will be to amend the PSP system so that when an employee takes a
period of qualifying holiday, the overtime worked by that employee in the 6 periods
immediately prior to their holiday will be reviewed to check that they have reached the
regularity threshold over that 6-period qualifying period.
