RMG/CWU Business Recovery, Transformation And Growth Agreement – Appendix 1 – Seasonal Variation

RMG/CWU Business Recovery, Transformation And Growth Agreement – Appendix 1 – Seasonal Variation

Further to LTB 191/23 (Letter To Branches) issued on the 18^th July, which advised Branches and Representatives in terms of moving forward the commitments contained in the Business Transformation, Recovery and Growth Agreement in relation to Appendix 1, Seasonal Variation, and the very challenging timelines linked to this aspect of the agreement.

For the ongoing information and attention of Branches, Representatives, and members alike, please find attached the following: –

Annex 1 – National Seasonal Variation FAQ (Frequently Asked Question) Document Version 2 

This is an updated version of the FAQ document attached to LTB 191/23, which includes a number of new FAQs based on initial feedback with the new Questions & Answers listed from 41 onwards.

Annex 2 – National Seasonal Variation WTLL Briefing Go Live Update

This is a further WTLL briefing to be issued and which confirms the ‘high season’ (under Seasonal Variation) will start on Monday 4^th Septemberand run until Sunday 17^th December, returning to the normal attendance patterns on Monday 18^th December 2023.

Again, and in setting out the above, it is clear that there remains a number of wider questions from members in terms of Seasonal Variation. Therefore, we believe that the attached FAQ will assist in answering any of these outstanding questions and further offer clarification on what Seasonal Variation is, and what it is not. It is also important to further remind ourselves that Seasonal Variation is far removed from Royal Mail’s Annualised Hours and Total Flexibility plans, which were a key aspect of the National dispute.

Any queries to the content of the above please contact the Outdoor Department reference 532, email address: njones@cwu.org

Yours sincerely,

Mick Kavanagh
Acting CWU Assistant Secretary
