Its no good asking Martin he only got in because no one voted its a bit like sunak ,and Martin is not my delivery union leader,what union leader would ever side with the argument of the company and keep telling us its the way its going and we have to face facts,im sorry but he has no credibility and as predicted the big sell out is now coming to fruition.
You should have put your name forward as the one to save us then.
You might aswell have told him to run for prime minister this year too and he would have the exact same chance as
being elected DGSP, zero.
It’s a rigged institution where the lazy rise to the top because of who they know and not what they know. Jobs for the boys and all that.
It was london who voted him in along with their pish agreement
Sweetner deals for london and f**k the rest of us
To the op - I don't think these times were ever going to be negotiated at do level because it is all down to what time wave two can reach your do from the mail centre.
They are being negotiated at area, divisional and national level. So your area rep should know a ballpark figure for your office, although that could change, even after Monday.
I disagree with this. Its partly dependent on the current indoor work plan each individual office is working to and the current level of resourcing and potential over resourcing when it comes to early sorting as well. Many offices are putting in early IPS OT where they don't need to. This could be the only reason offices are running out of work between wave 1 and 2. Local rep's should defo have been more involved even just to refine these start times before they were announced.
over resourcing!!!
There certainly is on the indoor operation in many offices. Driving early IPS overtime when not needed to get people out on the streets earlier and for longer. Instead of creating realistic duties and employing to match it they would rather chuck money at early indoor overtime and attempt to march their current staff into an early grave. I don't actually think its all that funny...
We have that in our office too. We have a sheet on the wall saying our leaving times inclusive of 20 minutes break and on some days they have me out for nearly 6 hours.
You can refuse to go over your delivery span as that is an agreed h&s limit
There is no way that is still valid. The fact it still lists cycle duties should be a clue.
Regards the original question, though; rural duties were and likely still are capped at 7½ hours. Town is anyone's guess: anything from the old 3½ to 6 hours with LWTs.

Well, there can’t be a cap any more as we still have 9-day fortnights in our office and the Wednesday and Thursday shift pattern is long. Granted, they are to take into account getting out later, but van shares can easily take 5.5-6 hours.
I would like to ask if our managers and union reps are still going to turn up at our funerals and shake the hands of our dearly beloved, and say how valued we were.
