Does anyone know how to get your work emails set up on your personal phone?

12 hour shifts

I'll let you know later on. I think 12 hours but not 100%.

Anywhere you can find out the closing date of signal boxes? I'd be interested to see how long my box has!

Yeah I said on a previous post that I assumed there would be no comp day involved as you're using the comp day on the day in question. I was just asking to make sure, the roster clerk isn't great at keeping track of how many comp days/annual leave days each person has so therefore we have to do...

Two different answers, anyone know for definite? Had a look through the rostering principle document on RMT, found lots of great information on working bank holidays but nothing to do with being booked off.

I'm working the nights on 24th too and I've heard that you don't get any bank holiday premiums for that even though technically you're working Christmas day morning as the shift is classed as the 24th, if that makes sense? No idea if it's correct through!

If you're booked to work then surely you get a lieu day as bank holidays are included in your annual leave allowance? EDIT: sorry I misread your post! I see what you mean now, cheers!

Anyone able to help a fairly new signaller get their head around bank holiday pay, LROP and HROP? What happens if a bank holiday falls on your usual day off? You get a day off in lieu but what about lower and higher rate of pay? If a bank holiday falls on your normal shift pattern but you've...

Stockport 1 and 2 are still going, I thought they were grade 7 but might be grade 6 like a previous reply says. There's also Edgeley 1 and 2 still going, both grade 6 I think.
