CPSU members at RET have flagged that there is a lot of uncertainty across the Department due to changes being made to Departmental policies and procedures.
CPSU is keen to hear what you think of proposed new policy and procedures so we can effectively represent your views. These issues may also be dealt with in the course of negotiations for your upcoming collective agreement.
What is being changed?
Enabling Service Group have drafted the following: • Code of Conduct policy • planning for accommodation changes within Industry House • interim arrangements for performance management within RET.
Genuine consultation?
While it appears there has been some consultation on these changes, your union believes a vital part of genuine consultation is the capacity to influence decisions before they are made. Thus, CPSU want to know what you think about proposed changes to Departmental policy and procedures so we can effectively represent your views to management.
