Virgin Media/Ntl Network Engineers have been told by management their new terms and conditions will include the following…
Covering hours from 09:00 to 17:00 on a normal working day, 12:00 to 20:00 when on call, working Saturday’s when on call, Implementation of a third shift Patten when on call Winter 10:00 to 18:00 then back to Summer Shift 12:00 to 20:00.
Then to top it all off “as if it’s not enough†We have been asked to help cut down on overtime... We are a 24-7 department 365 days a year called out at any time of the day or night in all weathers so we can give quality service to our customers. None of the so called OT is voluntary “We Have to Do Itâ€ÂÂââ⠚¬Â¦With the New T’s & C’s The Management would force Engineers to take the hours worked i.e. 00:00 04:00 as TOIL (time owed in lieu) with no financial gain for the Engineers inconvenience. As all are only to aware most areas within the old ntl Networks region have over the years been cut to the bone, so not only will the on call Engineers not be compensated for, the guys on a so call normal shift will have to work twice as hard because of the lieu day’s taken off (Total Madness)
We have to make a stand this time. Please log-on to this link

We need make Mr Branson aware of what really go’s on within old ntl and why it got in to the state it did before he bought in to it..
