Christmas bonus

Warehouseman Derek Laverty, 34, wasted no time in signing up a former agency worker at the DHL/EXEL site in Harlow, Essex, and his quick thinking won him £500 in the autumn issue recruit a friend prize draw.

"Many agency workers are reluctant to join because they are on temporary contracts," said union rep Derek. "But once they are made permanent I give them a form and they usually join.

"I was over the moon when I heard I'd won. The money will make Christmas even more special for me and my two young sons."

Shop steward Leanne Dodd is also a member of the team of reps at the depot.
