39 Hour Week. D2D into workload. What happens?

Post by DaveF14 »

Now that it has been agreed (joke) what happens to our delivery?

Now we have a 39 hour week do we get 12 mins off our duty everyday?

Now that d2d are built into our workload and is unlimited do we have delivery taken off to deal with it? I have 600 calls and the guy next to me has 250 and now both get paid the same to deliver them. Doesnt this make duties even more un balanced?

Now that the floater gets paid the same does he/she do a share of your d2ds?

Answers to these questions would be very much appreciated.

It is just like our office you get paid for 40 hours and are made to do 45 hours with five hours in your own time so with all the extra D2D and a reduction of one hour we will get paid 39 hours and do 50 hours work for nowt extra!.

You might do 45 or 50 hours, 5 or 10 for FREE, but I wont.

If this is the case then you've only yourself to bame.

Local talks/planning activity between DOM, Planner and CWU rep which are then put to a vote will decide how where the 1 hour comes from. The SWW comes in when you have a sequenced mail revsion implemented

Yes and No, revision activity will ensure all duties have enough work to fill out the working day,the amount of DP's does not determine if your overall workload is enough to fill out your working day.

Yes, should have been doing it allready,but management it seems at some D.O's dont care or understand that.

What you on about Daz? "Filling the working day". Guy next to me fills his working day on one of the easiest walks in the office by walking at snails pace.

If I were to do that, I'd be over every day.

2 people are NOT the same. In future I shall walk at his pace and handback, is that fair?

Lots of people wont have a 39 hour FT week for quite a while yet, Do not think the 39 hour week is coming in straight away for everybody.

Then that should be spotted with pegasus and its new settings at the revision and the DOM should go out with the OPG to determine why there is such a difference.

Very true!!!!

My D.O might be 2012 now for sequenced mail rather than 2011, RML might give a firm date at some point :hmmmm

I voted no too, but I guess we have to swallow it.

Oh no, I just got a horrible picture in my head. I thought about the idea of "swallowing it" and had a picture of sicking up a great lump of phlegm and having to swallow that. Euch. That's what it feels like though.
