RM Property & Facilities Solutions Limited (PFSL) & CWU Cleaners Incentive Scheme (Mid-Year Result)

Branches and members will recall LTB (Letter To Branches) 218/23 issued on the 22^nd August, which confirmed the full and final details in terms of the RM Property & Facilities Solutions Limited (PFSL) & CWU Joint Statement On The Cleaners Incentive Scheme.

In line with the incentive scheme, we are now able to communicate the ‘mid-year’ outcome and can confirm that both the cleaning financial target and minimum 26% recycling threshold have been achieved meaning a one-off payment of 0.75% of basic pay will be paid to all cleaning grades on 22nd December 2023.

Accordingly, please find attached a Joint Statement that confirms this mid-year outcome under the incentive scheme and other linked relevant points.

Whilst this is to be welcomed, importantly the objective of the scheme is to deliver against the overall 2% of base pay in total during the lifetime of this scheme (pro-rata for part-time workers) with the potential for a further payment in June of next year. There remains still some way to go in order to achieve the full year-end recycling target of 30%. Therefore, both parties will continue to work together to monitor, review, and support the measures to improve recycling levels as we go into Christmas and into the New Year. This will be alongside continuing to undertake further joint communications among members on the nature and recycling target mechanism under the incentive scheme.

Finally, it is again more than noteworthy to point out that seeking to increase recycling levels across Royal Mail workplaces, is not necessarily solely within the full gift of our cleaning grade members. Therefore, where Branches and in particular, our ASRs (whose role also covers wider workplace environment matters within Royal Mail), have concerns in terms of barriers and issues that are impacting on moving forward the recycling aims of the scheme, they should raise these with relevant Royal Mail management where necessary, along with the CWU Regional Cleaners Rep, so that this, in turn, can be referred to RMPFSL.

Any queries to the content of the above please contact the Outdoor Department reference 120.12, email address: JRODRIGUES@cwu.org 

Yours sincerely,

Mark Baulch
