Voluntary severance- just doesn’t add up

The RMT principal on voluntary severance is pretty clear; we are against it as we don’t believe it’s our job to sell. That was the reason we fought so hard for the job for life deal
Not only does selling our jobs make life more difficult for those left behind as they struggle to cope with ever increasing workloads, it also does not make economic sense.
The measly amounts LUL are looking to give to staff wanting to go under this flawed VS system do not stack up.
Think about it. £30,000 lump sum? Got another job that pays same/similar to LUL- lucky you
Reality is that you are unlikely to get similar paying job with comparable benefits such as pensions, free travel etc. etc.
Now look at what you are losing out on
If you are on around £40,000 per annum you will pay about £150 per month into your LUL pension, add in the 6.2 LUL pay and this amount to about £12,000 per year
Multiply this by 10 years, an average of how long we would expect to work before retirement, and it is now looking very serious on how much is being taken out of our pension pot, should we be foolish to accept the VS
Factor in lost wages and this offer of VS begins to look less and less attractive
Look at what’s going out of your back pocket while you are chasing a few quid in front of you
Who knew LUL would offer up a pup like this?
