I'd like to know about this. It's happened a few times in our office that someone has taken EVR and their duty has been downgraded by ten hours, or someone has sold their hours and kept their duty.

Interesting.. didnt know you could do that? .i.e. tell them u will go part-time so long as it is on your own duty... if it all gets 2 much for me i wud be interested in doing that as i love my walk ..but a man in work thinks to hold in as he thinks the full-timers that either dont leave or get sacked will be offered a lump sum for r mail to buy there contract to part-time!! that wud be better then least get a bit of money from going part-time as well.. :Applause
