Office overtime at Christmas
Is your office offering incentives? ie double time or deals?

Re: Office overtime at Christmas
Our office is offering overtime that is always incorrect in payslips and has to be chased on a regular basis !!
I wouldn't be happy to hear one of the bosses favourites was getting any kind of special deals yet others weren't

Re: Office overtime at Christmas
certain managers are happy for you to work overtime while getting amnesia when it comes to paying you

Re: Office overtime at Christmas
Our managers have been looking at allowing staff to work from home like they did in the pandemic or even go out in their cars as long as the mail is somewhere "safe", however, its only if they are prepared to work their day off.
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.

Wish ours would start offering that, it's double the £25 bonus on offer, there's more chance of Elvis turning up to do parcels than our office has of getting it.

Re: Office overtime at Christmas
If I get get offered at a higher rate I'll take it. But I'm not doing any extra to take home £9 per hour, not worth it. I'd rather just go home.

Re: Office overtime at Christmas
I personally don’t bother unless I’m already out and will claim 30 -40 minutes maximum, on most days I leave some in frame and cut off I mean the wage is quite decent if you’ve been here a while but bizarrely you take home less past your 37 hours, I’ve never known any company pay less on overtime and that’s why i can’t be bothered with it, I know it’s extra money but overtime is only just better than minimum wage!

Re: Office overtime at Christmas
In larger offices there has been a sort of restoration due to infighting of multiple coms. I don't think they got the DOM title back, but it's essentially the same idea, they're queen of the hive and also responsible for everything that goes wrong.

Re: Office overtime at Christmas
Some crews have been staying out gone 7, 8 & 9pm with no questions asked regarding overtime, 11/12 hours is the going rate to work your day off with a 3ish finish time, fill your boots if you want it

Re: Office overtime at Christmas
How does that work with SISO when we've been told we can only now claim OT to the minute we work, as otherwise it's being picked up by senior management above our DOM/COM?
