Return to Work Duties

Posted 23 Feb under Auckland Local

We have been told that staff wanting to do Return to Work Duties will have to do them at District HQ and they do not intend to reimburse your travel costs, “you are getting an enhanced pay and you can fund your own travel”. We have since got an agreement that the travel distance reimbursement will be paid for travel to District HQ.

We have objected and oppose this strongly. All opportunities for RTWD at your own station should be exhausted before District Headquarters is considered. If you are told that you are required to do your RTWD at district headquarters, I urge you to contact an elected union official for support.
