"Banked" days-in-lieu
All those days that we helpfully "banked" (without any real option) during the OCT last year were supposed to be added up and agreed by the end of March. Now we hear that it will be the end of May before this, seemingly simple, task will be complete.
Could the rumours be true? Have they really "lost" the original data and are attempting to recreate the facts from old watch rosters?
An alternative theory suggests that each recorded day is being examined to see if it can be "re-defined" as not being eligible for a day-in-lieu.
Either way, it looks like yet another opportunity for friction between the workers and the ORO!!!
