Sunday Working Question

[shaunthomas]

I would consider it, would you?

[Woody Guthrie]

There are a limited number of staff who can have Saturday off so it's likely that this idea would impact on the availability of Saturday as a day off for remaining staff.

So what you're kind of asking is would you screw over your colleagues for 1 in 2 Saturdays off?

I've yet to see a shift pattern that doesn't screw some people over. The office beside me for instance some staff never get a Saturday off.
As long as 51% of staff, who happen to be mostly full time, vote for a shift pattern then it gets brought in. Just my personal experience in the offices I've worked in.

Its bad enough we only get one in 6 Saturdays to spend with family, to make us work a Sunday as well is a complete farce.
Should still be voluntary or written into new contracts for any newcomers.

We are talking about working Sunday, I wouldn’t be applying for a job that asked me to do that in the first place .

Your completely twisting it of course considering the thread is about sunday working not t&cs.

There's a lot of different shift patterns across deliveries,seems the more militant offices are they get a better shift rotation,its time our union started fighting for all,if anything comes out of this i'd like to see fairer shift patterns for all,for the many not the few.
