After the e-mail went out on Friday there were
a number of PCS bulletins issued. Please bring yourselves up to date, make your
colleagues aware and ask them to join PCS if they are not currently a member.
Jobcentres
As reported last week, Leicester city
Jobcentres will not be opening due to the local lockdown. For all other
Jobcentres see
the bulletins here for information about further opening, volunteering to
work on front line, and the legal position in health and safety law. Any
further bulletins will appear on this link.
Covid-19
PCS are hearing reports of a potential case and
are trying to ensure that the correct procedures have been followed. If you
hear of a colleague who is undergoing a test or you are being tested yourself
please inform your manager immediately and also your PCS rep if you are able to
do so.
Pay
With everything else going on pay seems to have
slipped down the agenda. PCS have rejected the pay offer (see
here) but DWP is imposing it anyway (see
here).
Contacting
PCS
If you have any questions raised by anything in
this e-mail, or anything else, please contact your local rep or reply to this
e-mail.
If you need representation please follow the
instructions on the
branch blog, here. DO NOT send anything to PCS LEGAL or directly to me as
this will slow down your case.
Branch Secretary PCS DWP Leicestershire Branch
