Flying posties

Post by Rob roy »

Our local office has 6or 7 strike breakers, but our manager is bringing posties from the Berwick office to do tracked and special, over 50miles away. Should they not be working in there own area?

The law only applies to groups of workers who are on strike attending other offices and protest

A working employee can go to any location if asked and work a shift. Strike or no strike

Strike or no strike, RM has to provide transportation to the other office. Most people's car insurance policies will only cover them to their REGULAR place of work.
