Another lapsing question
Don't know if this question has been answered before.We lapse 3 days a week the problem is the duty that is lapsed is the same duty that is lapsed on the first day of sickness,what do other offices do about this problem as we have to come up with a solution.

Re: Another lapsing question
If somebody goes sick, OT gets paid to cover the duty...
How can you lapse if your exsisting duties are optimised???
Do you magic spare time with some kind of magic dust!

Re: Another lapsing question
lapsing is done within the duty time
if you have time while taking full breaks and starting on time
then theres no issue

Re: Another lapsing question
We use lapsing as an excuse to cover sick leave too
The number of duties lapsed depends on how many people are on the sick. Everybody claims overtime.

Re: Another lapsing question
Get the line manager to problem solve, that's what they are paid for, If lapsing is gonna take you over your time then tell the line manager that you will work to time, they CAN'T make you work over your timeFishyfingers wrote:,what do other offices do about this problem as we have to come up with a solution.

We have a revision team made up of posties so we don't get screwed over and it worked well so far.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
