toilet needs
Might sound daft.... but... was told a couple of days ago (by the DOM -Acting) that come the revision then people on IPS (up to 90 mins) would not be allowed to go to the toilet. As it was reasonable that they could 'hold it'

Re: toilet needs
Just go there and then...........and then you'll have to go home to clean up...............and the cleaner will have to come in to clean up the area because it wouldn't be safe for other (H&S and all that)

Re: toilet needs
Apart from the obvious H&S considerations,the possible equality and sex discrimination issues the ability to go to the toilet when you need to has been custom in Royal Mail way past long enough to be considered an implied term of your contract of employment.hampshireman wrote:Might sound daft.... but... was told a couple of days ago (by the DOM -Acting) that come the revision then people on IPS (up to 90 mins) would not be allowed to go to the toilet.

Any attempt to change this should be met with a disagreement and a quick phone call to your branch.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Re: toilet needs
This is so ludicrous that it defies belief, why are you not informing your local TV and newspapers. Here is an ideal chance to highlight the type of managers that are ruining this business. You have been handed a golden chance to do somerthing about it.hampshireman wrote:Might sound daft.... but... was told a couple of days ago (by the DOM -Acting) that come the revision then people on IPS (up to 90 mins) would not be allowed to go to the toilet.

Re: toilet needs
Dont worry we have been told if you want a coffee or the toilet then you have to turn up early for work !!! Surely stopping you using the toilet is against human rights?

You lot have obviously not seen the new item of uniform. Incontinence Pants. You can choose red or to disguise any stains, they have a nice brown pair to match your trousers/shorts.

Re: toilet needs
Ahhh so that's why the sound of a small nuclear explosion going off in the cubicle next to mine is happening!
Because you have to hold it for 90+ mins.

Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.

Re: toilet needs
I mentioned all this last year, as we have already went through the revision.
RM are affectively doing away with the 10 minute grace break and nobody is fighting it.
WHY?
