I have since been told that the date they recognise is when the offer details are sent out and if this date is after 01/01 of each year. So eg, if it was after 01/01/2024 you would not get any pay award in 2024, no matter when the pay award if finalised for that year. My offer letter was...

Yeah, I've been shown a document that say's if you started on or after the 01/01/2024 you are not entitled to the 2024 pay award. The galling part is I was offered the job in December 2023 and accepted it! Oh well they are not going to change their rules just for me. I'm surprised at that, so...

Thanks for the response, I'm talking about the pay award for this year, I was under the impression that all backpay and the actual 4.5% increase would be showing in the 06/12 pay advise?

Not sure if this is the correct section to post this, but I started with NR on 02/04/2024, does this mean I was not entitled to the pay rise that was agreed in September, I've just checked E-Pay and there is no backpay, the basic is the same, nothing!

First off, apologies if I have posted this in the wrong forum. I recently registered for the Network Rail Staff Leisure Card, I have received the card itself via the post on Monday, does anybody know how long it takes for the one off passcode to arrive, or do you have to chase this up? Also, I...

I have an application in with Network Rail which is pending interview, its been like that for a month or more. I have heard that the delay is because Works Delivery are reviewing their CP7 budgets. Does anybody know if this is correct and how long the recruitment freeze will last?

I imagine if TSSA again agree their balott on the NR offer Tim & co will be looking into this, I know a few colleagues have jumped ship from the RMT to TSSA as they feel they have no voice in the RMT as the changes to T&C's does not impact them, plus they are sick of seeing overtime being...

Can an offer be imposed without union agreement?

I know a lot of band 5-8 staff have had their fill of the strikes, especially as we feel we have been used as extra body's to back maintenance up. What makes it worse is that we know that some maintenance staff in our depot have been getting cooked up overtime to cover strike day loses and...

I know a fair few fellow RMT NR staff who are in maintenance & renewals office based jobs (section planners,admins etc) are now seriously thinking about quitting the RMT, they feel like the RMT are only bothered about track based roles and are dropping the overtime ban to try and give the track...

You are probably correct, but we have a situation where some staff can cover their loses and others can't, but the one who can't are striking so the ones who can hopefully don't get shafted with their T&C's.

As an NR employee & RMT member who works in planning this could cause quite a split in opinion where I am based.. I know a fair few colleagues who are at the point where they would accept the revised deal because they are worried that by continuing to strike any eventual pay deal will prove...

The 14:52 Stockport to Greenbank I normally use when I am coming back from work seems to be cancelled every single day, but its always showing as running and was cancelled last week about 2 minutes before it was due to arrive into Stockport, on the screens it was even showing as having passed...

Does this mean that Haines & co are dropping their ideas on weekend working/rostering, chopping night rates etc, or did the torygraph run out of ink?
