@ Boark.
First 10 hours at an enhanced rate. Then the rest at time. SA overtime is enhanced again, plus pensionable.
Casuals are paid for time, not overtime.

@ Redceo.
Let me explain.
The last time we had casuals in our office they signed in and signed out.
They then got paid for those hours after it was verified by a manager, plus I believe a break.
These casuals were supplied by angard. Who I believe also have to be paid to supply these people. Otherwise they would go bust!!
So 1 casual paid for on his / her terms for doing 1 complete 4 hour delivery. Plus redirection, bundling up, etc.
The maximum they would pay a postie is 6 hours.
How many hours do you think these casuals claim for?

How can you say that RMG do not pay more?
Not forgetting my earlier post about 3 casuals doing 1 delivery.
That ain't forward planning by RMG, that's stupidity.

@ Redceo.
See my 17.47 post.
I should add IMO.

@ Oli G.
I think RMG retain casuals via angard and these are the first ones they call on. Normally Xmas work but can be used in delivery offices too.
I believe that they actually have pay numbers.
The fact remains though that RMG are paying an agency and a casual, so therefore detrimental to any profits.
As I said earlier, they get paid to go over too.

@ wolvesposty.
Who's name calling??
You're the one mentioning militants in your office!!
It would appear that you are trying to stoke the fire, probably because you know I'm right.

I Spy

@ Redceo.
I have no idea whether it "has" to be offered to employees first.

@ wolvesposty.
Correct. They don't use high street any more. Its angard staff. But you will still pay twice.
One other thing. Much the same as us posties. If they go over they get paid.
I was told by a manager that it took 3 casuals to do one round. And that was this year.

I Spy

@ Redceo.
I believe the agency is paid. They then pay the casual. So if you look at it in literal terms, RMG will be paying twice.
Once for the agency and once for the casual. It costs more.

I understand that in some areas agency workers are being recruited and deployed from next week to handle any overtime or cut offs. Posties are apparently refusing to do any overtime in these areas.
Now, if this were to happen nationwide on a daily and regular basis, I wonder how many casuals would be needed to cover the excess. And more importantly, for how long?
Now that would blow a huge hole in any profits!

@ mad.
There's also the open letter that was ridiculed by some on here. Dated today.

@ mad.
Listed on the CWU FB page.

@ mad and Scamp.
The mediators recommendations are very interesting. Especially regarding PF.
I, like many others, thought that this was part one of Mr Backs plans.
It'll be interesting to see RMG's response to this.
But not as interesting as the results next week!!

I Spy

Nice to see that so many abusive posts were removed from yesterday evening.
Unfortunately the whole thread has been removed, so some worthwhile and debateable posts have gone too.
It's a shame that the abusive posters have not been deleted too.
They bring nothing to this board.
Admin are watching posters, and I think it's clear who they are watching.
Nice one admin. But can't you just remove the abusive filth as opposed to the whole thread?

I Spy

@ DerekR.
Results "as expected" at the best. Trust me. At the worst? Well I expect Mr Back to be buying more shares!
I forgot about the Whistl thing though. Even worse!

I Spy

@ idedat.
Look at the facts.
IA has been averted by the courts judgement. Therefore the busiest period in the RMG will be maintained. I cannot wait to see how many amazon items we get.
Despite this the share price has risen today by a paltry THREE PENCE!!!!
Factor in the quarterly report next week, which I believe at best will be "as expected", I would suggest a downside. Simply because all the positives have been factored in now.
Plus the reality of another IA ballot, another overwhelming yes vote, and dates set in stone this time.
Not looking good is it?
In my opinion only. I'm sure others here will give you a positive spin.

ex-PostmanPorsche.
There's always one and it had to be you.
Bait the hook, cast and the line and who have I caught today?

I Spy

@ Normal.
Explain that to idiots like wolvesposty.
For the life of me I cannot understand his wisdom. And if the PLC world has anything to do with it, the local postie will be gone forever.

I Spy

@ Normal.
Not only will all out terms and conditions be eroded, the service we provide to the public will be gone.
It's already happening. I see it every single day.
RMG do not care about the pubic.
It's all about money for the greedy bloodsucking leeches, aka shareholders.

I Spy

@ wolvesposty.
I see you've taken to refraining from abusing people from behind your keyboard. Glad that you've learnt some manners sonny.
Just for clarity, because I think you are finding this hard to understand.
If RMG start chipping away at my t's & c's, they are clearly chipping away at yours.
What part of this don't you understand?
And it's not just you. You claim to be able to retire. Most of your colleagues can't. Most of your colleagues will be in the job for years to come.
Does that not strike a chord with you? Or is it a case of i'm alright Jack?
You have colleagues whose livelihood could be eroded, and you don't care?

A despicable greedy human being.

For what it's worth. I have it on good authority that the courts have found in favour of RMG.

If you lot think that's a good thing, I have a feeling that you are deluding yourself. Read Fruitsters earlier post.

I Spy

Says it all.
Disrupt the general election.
For somebody with an educated brain, how on earth does he come up with this?
IA was voted for weeks before a GE was announced.
And as for coercion to vote yes??
Absolute bulls***!!!

At least we can go on strike after xmas. No opposition then. My favoured choice, and I must be the only militant saying that!

@ Fruitster.
I asked for proof not a sermon.
Jesus would've proud if you.
The 1st hour deduction from the working week was provided for, correct?
The 2nd hour wasn't, correct.

Can you provide figures to support this?
What was expected, what was achieved, and why it was and wasn't for both scenarios!

Bless you.
