That may be the local procedure but the overrunning deliveries makes no such specific demand on the OPG. It states simply:

Where an employee feels he/she may experience difficulty in completing his/her delivery within the remaining duty time, he/she should approach his/her manager during preparation of the walk.

perhaps the information we give them needs to be less confrontational
i.e do not say i can't or won't complete, rather i think i may have difficuly in completing.
