Delivery Supplement

Post by Broxi51 »

Do we get 20% or 16.66% extra delivery supplement during bank holiday week? :hmmmm
I realise we no longer get paid for D2D's in which case what happens with a bank holiday monday?
We cannot deliver extra since pegasus will have to take into account the extra delivery stops and we
now have one day less to deliver them.
Does that mean that we will lose our bank holidays so that all d2d's will be delivered or does 16.66% not get delivered that week UNLESS we choose to deliver them :left:
The time has come to stop turning the other cheek, time to stop shaking our heads in bitter dismay, time to stop mumbling our angry words.
The time has come for union.

I think you'll find that on a bank holiday week they will say 20% have to go per day. Of course the duties will not have been designed for this but they will tell you you have to do it and that you have time. It will be up to you to decide whether this impacts on your ability to finish on time. If it does you will need to cut off as you would now......cue argument with manager. :arrrghhh
