Talks over pension contributions between East Midlands Trains (EMT) and the union Aslef last week broke up without agreement, while another strike is due on Thursday. Clare McCartney, HR Director for EMT, said: “We are frustrated that our constructive attempts to provide a resolution on this issue have not been taken up by Aslef.”

Individual and group absence planners are some of the clever functions contained within an all-in-one Time and Attendance Midlands company time and attendance system. User-definable Working Patterns, Job Booking and Job Costing are all covered by the multi-lingual network. The Group Holiday Planner displays a whole year of absences at a time. It allows the easy viewing on office computer screens of incidences of multiple absences, whether in the past or the future, making it an ideal management tool.
