If your new model takes you over WP contracted hours and you need to bring it down by getting leave. No problems, fair negotiation for the boys.
The bit I don't understand is as follows...... our union rep states that you're getting 10 days extra leave to compensate for this. Fine, I understand that too.
But why are you only getting the extra leave for 2 years if this is a permanent change and your hours will be permanently over the agreed WP hours?? There's something slightly smelly about all of this......
