Ntl/TELEWEST - PERSONAL INJURY
CLAIMS 28/09/06
Branches were notified in LTB 578/06
of the intent by NTL/Telewest to launch a Voluntary Release Programme.
The scheme has now closed and the
company has advised that with one or two cases still to be resolved all requests
have been granted.
A clause in the associated
documentation had been brought to the Union’s attention which sought to negate
any current personal accident injury claims against the company. This has been
taken up with the company and they have agreed that this is inappropriate and
for those members where there are claims a revised letter should be issued.
Branches are asked to bring this to
the attention of members so that they are aware, and that for those members with
personal injury claims they can seek an amended letter.
Negotiations between Ntl/Telewest and
their potential preferred regional suppliers continue; it is expected that these
discussions will conclude shortly, following which the company will engage on
the TUPE discussions.

Dear NTL/Telewest
employee,
The CWU has official
recognition for BBE grade with Telewest, we have organised reps who work for
your company and they have been sent away for training courses so they can serve
you. So we are asking you in what ever role
you do within Telewest to join the CWU so we
can bring official recognition to all parts of Telewest. The South East Anglia
Branch of the CWU is looking after members based in Essex.
What's in it for
me then?
Due to recent changes in the law,
the CWU can represent you should you run in to any discipline or Grievance
issues. If you have an accident whether in or out of work, the CWU can look
after you legally, but we want to go further, we want to make sure we are
involved in your Health & Safety and work, your pay negotiations and that
changes to your working day / week are done fairly.
OK I'm Convinced,
what do I do next?
Contact our membership hot line
during office hours on 01277 848465 and
we will send you out a membership application form to your home address, the cost per month at
present for all Telewest members is £5.99. if you would like further details please

you are not in Essex area please ring the above number and we will put
you in contact with your local CWU branch.
