revisions NOT being implemented.

[malcolm3011]

Revision partly implemented in my office. Van sharing Monday to Friday but then staff are told to take their own cars on a Saturday!

Correct me if i am wrong but i thought the use of private cars for delivery was banned

Seems to me managers are doing it because its not working during the week so they don`t want left with loads of undelivered mail on a Saturday.

So what's the difference between using your cars, or the vans?
I know there aren't enough. But surely they should let you use as many vans as are available, shouldn't they?

You would probably get "job and finish" in your own vehicle instead of returning to the office - saving just enough time to make a difference !!!

No need to correct you.

All delivery revisions will be planned on the basis of no use of private cars. Private cars on delivery will cease upon the deployment of a Delivery Methods revision in a unit.

The manager is being a tosser...closely followed by the members.

[smokerjim]

AFAIK TN area is still in the dark about what's happening ( all revisions postponed due to stage 3 disagreement at Ashford ) so we could get revisions back on next week or never.....place your bets now

Is there not a paragraph under a different section of the agreement which says 'in exceptional circumstances and where no other blah blah,then the use of private cars may be permitted? Im sure i saw it somewhere in the agreement,obviously Royal Mail
would be taking the piss if they used that paragraph to justify a private cars free for all but it wouldnt take much for exceptional
circumstances to become the norm in Royal Mail.

You aren't wrong Dan there was a clause stating just that.

[Steviea34]

Lets be clear here, the revisions will go ahead BUT, the revision cannot
worsen the units current run rate, i.e not spend anymore than you currently
are, even if the tools, i.e GEORUTE/IWT say investment is needed, thats the
N.E stance anyway.

If delivery methods never sees the light of day at my D.O the mbrs will be happy

Fine for your guys with bikes and vans Daz.
Not so good for the 75% of members carrying a bag and therefore carrying chronic knee and back problems into what should have been a happy retirement.

And how will bikes deal with the increase in packets?

[Stormproof]
