If we are not happy with AFC with regard to which band we'll end up on, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

I've being looking for where MTO 3's (Biomed/Electronics) will come according to the Agenda for Change (Proposed Agreement) and think we'll be:

Scientific,
Healthcare,
Administrative,
Technical

Officers,
Non-registered.

Use the acronym - it's less of a mouthful but says it all!

Under AfC you do have the right of appeal.
Remember each personal job description is being matched - or group if there are several people with the same JD.
If you feel you have been wrongly placed appeal. Even if you have been matched as part of a group if you can show you do more it should be reflected in your JD.
Make sure your job description shows everything you do as the more that is in it the more points you get.
And we all know points make prizes.

Why should I have to appeal just to stay at the level I am on.

Why is everybody panicking,surely it is pointless guessing what people might be on or wether they will be down graded.Until technicians at the early implimentor sights have been offered a grading there is nothing to worry about.Once there is something in writting,then we can comment about what action to take! if any?

Richard, Why let reason get in the way of blind panic and paranoia

Shouldn't people panic, Richard.

Do you know something to re-assure people.

After all you do work for an early implementor site in Medical Engineering, surely you are sorted out by now.

I thought originally the early implementor sites were suppose to have everything in place by August 2003. Now nearly May 04 and nothing has been heard does early implementor mean the day before everyone else.

We are told it is coming into place Oct 04, no matter what.

I have heard very little to put people's minds at ease.

You early implementor sites have no doubt had resources and outside support poured on the situation and you don't seem to have come up with any answers.

Us poor saps will just have to go with the flow and feed off the benefits of your "wisdom".

No need to panic ...come into my parlour said the spider to the fly.

Ken (26th April) I certainly hope so
Dave H, I was at a meeting last week, if I understood correctly we are being dealt with from 01/10/04. With back pay to that date if you get more than your on today.

According to the latest I've heard, all union members will be balloted as to their agreement or otherwise with Agenda for Disaster. The results of this ballot will be announced in early November!
I also notice that the upper management, who have to implement all these changes, are more worried about it than we are.
Does anybody know why we are having these changes anyway?

AFC is supposed to be in place by October and the union ballot results are due in November. Something doesn't add up.
