I'm pretty sure it would be all the mail 'due that day'. Office is clear is a roundabout way of saying it. That's my take on it.
Yes, there would be frames with either 50% of 2C in it/under it, but that's Tuesdays work, given the first day was a Monday.
Yeah that'll be it I was taking it too literally :thumbup

The letter states that Manchester cleared the whole office on the first day.
It actually says the unit cleared on the first day. It also says duties are leaving on time. What it doesn't say is what happened next. Welcome to the return of clear offices ruling.

How far the company has fallen when clearing the office is seen as a success. And as mentioned cleared means what exactly ?

The vote means nothing really, if anything it has turned into a vote of the leadership of the CWU.

Can someone explain simply what the ODM and DM26 actually means ? We have been a trial office since last year, rurals doing half one day then the other half the next while parcels and 1st class all get done. Towns have been shafted badly, All mail everyother day, 1st class and parcels for two duties on the other days. means we have a weeks d2ds to do in two days one week and 3 days the next. We havent seen a union rep in months though and not sure what is happening.

Probably on a Tuesday in May, well done .👏
Packets are on the low ebb in the middle of the month and sequenced callrates for some duties in the top half of the week are bordering on single digits. We'll see how it fares on Friday when DTS opens the floodgates or at the end of the month when Tracked surges.

Surely day 1 would only be 1 days mail on the heavy side? How about an update on how much was cleared on day 8? And how much extra resource was required to clear, in summer.
