Loads of Specials Today in Scotland
We had 22 on our round, the amount varied throughout the office, from 11 to 30 something, it's probably those bloody Take That tickets!
Anyone else have to deal with them?

Do not carry more than the maximum number allowed. Do not expose yourself to risks.George door to dawes wrote:wasnt there a rule that you only had to take like 8 specials or something? Might have just been my pre-revison office...
If it is a high risk area then refer to the “WalkSafe” threat assessment procedure as it may
be necessary to reduce the number or remove these items completely on certain walks.
The important thing is that a Walk Risk Assessment must be carried out and such assessments
based on local knowledge and previous incidents may override these standards to ensure
the most appropriate safety and security protection levels are maintained at all times.
(A maximum of 8 Special Delivery (SD) individual items per walk may be carried each day,
of which no more than 3 may be higher value SD items, a maximum of 48 SD individual
items per walk each week of which no more than 18 may be higher value SD items. Walks
exceeding this standard number of items per week must to be Risk Assessed to determine
the appropriate method of delivery and whether it needs to be motorised. Ideally collection
and deliveries in town centre areas should be motorised. For the full details on Motorised/
Vehicle SD Delivery/Collection refer to Royal Mail Internal Information Special Delivery
Pipeline Conveyance Guidelines for the collection, delivery and distribution of SD item
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
