Resign/Repick

[southoftheriver]

What triggers a repick ?

Is there a certain percentage of the office that needs to be affected or can staff decide to vote for a repick?

Does anybody have a LTB or anything concrete from union?

[Strong bull]

The unions stance is probably

If it doesn't effect our income then we are not interested. We will go along and agree with whatever R/M want

[SpacePhoenix]

The way it's going I wouldn't be surprised to see re-signs being yearly in both DOs and MCs

RESOURCING JOBS DURING MAJOR CHANGE

[southoftheriver]

Can the staff vote for a repick if the desire is there?

We haven't had major change but lapsing walks have displaced senior staff who now don't have a walk

Only asking because our union rep doesn't seem to know

That would be interesting, we’ve not had one in 12 years and had two revisions implemented,

I think that re-alingment/revisions are going to become yearly

I doubt you'll here anything from the union,people been kicked off their deliveries last year in the reshuffle and put on the worst walks in the office ,guy of 61 been there 40 years chucked on one of the steppiest walks trying to break him and union done nothing.

Our office badly needs a revision and re-pick. We haven't had one for several years and a lot of staff have since jumped onto decent walks that they haven't signed for. Management and the Union don't want to create any upheaval in displacing staff on regular walks but the reality is that many rounds have just had loops tagged on to them that are often miles away from the original route. Many of our walks are also imbalanced as a result of many new builds as well.

That sounds like my office. We have been told that there is going to be an office repick in two months. It’s been two months away for three years plus now. I’d be unhappy if it did happen though because the revisions need revising so we’d be picking a walk that could change for the worse. The revisions need sorting first but someone up top is preventing anything sensible being done.

Call the area rep if your unit one doesn’t know.

Sounds like my DO.

It's a resign if a third of the walks are changed.

So if all walks have been changed by adding absorption loops? That makes a resign a dead cert?

Wonder why they keep kicking it down the road at our place.

Repicks cost money because of training and are a headache for management.
