Not sure how you can give letters a boost.... but I sure as heck don't understand why people still get the amount of letters they do, that is a mystery to me.
The amount of houses on my round that have letters daily is crazy to me. Not just 1 letter, but 3 - 7 letters daily. What information do people need that often and in that amount.
when you hand it to them they usually don't want it any way, just a pity the mail service doesn't operate a scheme similar to TPS for phone calls where you can block any mail unless you've agreed the companies can write to you with sales magazines etc.
He made that comment and then in almost the next breath spoke about fixing issues in existing pilots. Tony Bouch said the same.
Why? It is a pilot that doesn’t work, it doesn’t save money, it does not improve QofS, it is horrible for the staff working it, it is a dead pilot.
Pilot offices should use their colllective union power to kick it out.
Agreed. If something is fundamentally broken, you don't fix it - you replace it. The ODM isn't a pilot but a blueprint for future restructuring and the CWU HQ are far too invested in it now to walk away. By talking about "fixing" the issues they are essentially buying time, softening any opposition and hoping that staff fatigue does the rest. These trial offices should demand an immediate pause on these pilots and hold a workplace meeting to vote on the model. If it's just more work with less time then they should refuse to cooperate with it. The sooner that it is recognised and challenged collectively then the better chance that staff have of stopping it before it becomes the new normal.
Sadly, the CWU leadership aren't interested in that. Thats why they need replacing ASAP.
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.
It shouldn't be rocket science to make it work, you have 2 people doing double mail and small packets, and a driver doing the medium and large plus Reggie's and consumer collections.

Not a trial from later this month. It starts going live in phases around the country from later this month.

Not with union support or co operation

I don’t think you’ve thought this through
Who’s doing the trackers and first class on the other two walks? Or is every two duties to have three people doing it resulting in the opposite of making savings?

We know that 3 into 4 doesn't work, you will be able to make the walks slightly bigger if you're talking the medium and large off, there's your savings.

You never answered the question though
Who’s doing the first class and tracked off the other two?
If you’ve got two people doing double mail and small packets off two larger walks and someone else doing all their medium and large off the two larger walks who’s doing the tracked and first class off the two walks that aren’t going out
To have double mail you need duties not going out every day
In order for the walk you say has double mail to have double mail the two posties who are in it would have to be on something else the day before or else it wouldn’t be double would it?

They would rotate onto 2 other walks, the drivers could split the other 2 walks between 2 so 1 duty of first and all tracked and 2 duties of medium and large.

The driver in your plan who is already doing 2 larger walks of medium and large what else is he doing?
Another larger walks first and all tracked?

Yes, only 1 walk though.
but then the next 'foursome' along will have a driver doing 2+1 too and that means theres two walks needing done - who does those? You say split it with another driver but they will be doing their own 2 walks + 1 of the others in the 4
