Re: Mon to Fri
How about Monday to Friday delivery with just a priority service on Saturdays. People last in the door will lose jobs but with turn over in staff being fairly high they wouldnt be out of jobs for that long. Some floaters would become holiday reserves for that rotation.
Yes we would be delivering 6 days mail into 5 so try and punt out as much mailsort at the start of the week so its busier then and the end of the week wouldnt see much difference.
Just my idea.

A move to a Mon-Fri service would at a stroke lose 1in 6 jobs.Or 16% of the workforce.smokerjim wrote:remove one of those service days, then you would have RM working out how to justify 6 opgs for 5 duties over 5 days, - could you justify that? If not, how do you want to decide who goes & how do you tell them?
It's not a good idea.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Run, rabbit run. Dig that hole, forget the sun.
And when at last the work is done. Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

Re: Mon to Fri
We have SA in our office and you have to sign a contract which has to be resigned every year, also if you either side wants to opt out they have to give 1 months notice.Just like when RM reduced the SA hours, 1 months notice was given and new contracts signedda'bunny wrote:I have to say i totaly agree with this statementeian687 wrote:give us mon to fri and give the part timers the sats or let us have it as S A if wantedAt our office we HAVE to work 6 days a week as Sats are our SA days and compulsory o.t (wtf)! I know alot of people at my office who would gladly give up working Saturday and as Eian687 says let the ones who want to work Sats as SA work then thats there choice!

Re: Mon to Fri
We never have to sign anything! Plus there is no way of not working Saturdays we have to work 6 days a week not 5 over 6 so if they got rid of saturday sa it would be moved to a different day and sat would be a regular working day. I have asked on numerous occasions about how to not have to work sat and not do any sa but its not an option at our office.
Just say NO ....to the new agreement.
