LTB 319/24
Raising Concerns Agreement
Branches will recall LTB 278/24 dated 19th August 2024, where we highlighted the main points of the agreement. This was followed by the agreement being sent to Branches on 20th August 2024, and in turn a National online Briefing was called on the matter on 22nd August 2024. (21st August 2024 for the SW/SW Branches).
On 10th September 2024, the Branches that returned their ballots voted in favour of the agreement;
59,683 FOR
12,213 AGAINST
Please find attached a copy of the signed agreement along with PDF Procedure/managers guide.
We would like to take this opportunity to remind Branches, the agreement was due to go live today, the 30th of September 2024. Unfortunately, due to work flow testing on the People Case Management System (PCM), the go live date will now be 8th October 2024. Any cases which have commenced before the 8th October 2024 will continue to be dealt with in line with the two former procedures.
Any new cases logged on or after the 8th October 2024 will proceed in line with the new agreement. Furthermore, there will be a WTLL week commencing 7th October 2024 outlining the new agreement.
We firmly believe this new agreement on Raising Concerns to be of a superior nature from that which we currently have;
it is an agreement that’s transparent, and where timescales are a lot tighter for cases to be concluded. Our members will see the positive benefits from this agreement; an agreement that protects employees from recrimination for raising a concern.
Please bring this LTB to the attention of our representatives and members, and any queries relating to this agreement should be forwarded to the PTCS
Department, email address khay@cwu.org or hmaughan@cwu.org

Acting Assistant Secretary
