NETWORK CHANGES - LATER START AND FINISH TIMES IN DELIVERY OFFICES

[rubberbond]

Where’s the fairness in some offices finishing 15 mins later and others 90 mins ?
Luck of the draw attitude stinks!

Watch the request for transfers go through the roof now

And to discourage that they will insist any transferee migrate to the new contract , you will not win.

The old CWU trick i see - RM wanted this but we got this - aren't we amazing keep paying your subs

[Rumple]

Nice of the CWU to sprinkle some glitter on the turd before serving it to us.

How does moving your meal relief mean you can finish earlier?

i assume work it and finish 15 mins early

It mentioned moving it earlier 🫣

Was told in our office this morning we won’t know our starting time till Monday but don’t think It will be a good one.

That’s just madness, what’s going on with this company, what about SD’s , it’s difficult enough to get to the far flung places for 13:00 as it is , without the disadvantage of being an hour later. Has anyone thought any of this through.

Common sense would suggest SD's are just made next day rather than by 1pm, the 9am's will be interesting if some offices move to a 8:30am start time!!

I was thinking of a turd sandwhich on some really fancy bread, but your analogy works better.

Be warned, a lot of colleagues up here in the Outer Mongolia of Britain (aka Scotland) are not happy at all. It's going to be a record breaking year for plummetting staff morale.

Why are people acting surprised by this news? It was probably the most prominent feature of the agreement unanimously voted in. We all knew it was coming.

I thought that too, wherever you take it between start and finish time wouldn't affect the finish time.

[Neverwasadoor]

I believe that if your start time is 8.30, you can change it to 8.15 but you have to have 15 minutes of break between the 1st and 2nd wave so there is no down time. Not a fan as who wants a break that early.

[Neverwasadoor]

Also it has to be agreed by everyone. Staff, union and management.

[clashcityrocker]

Imagine your first lorry arrives at 7 with 1 hours work.
Wave 2 arrives at 8.20.
If you take a meal relief between 8 - 8.20 then your start time remains at 7 and not 7.20.

If your start time is earlier then so is your finish time.

[claretandblue]

Seems pointless for the sake of 15 mins, we start at 7, and I usually have my break around 9.

Will wave 1 dispatches be moving back by the same amount as the wave 2 dispatches? Have they factored in the restrictions on driving hours for distribution drivers?
