I'm sure this got discusse recently but i can't see it anywhere.

I thought i read it somewhere if you sent to another office

1) You were due bus fares back to your own office
2) And does travelling back to your own office get factored into it.

I could just be talking crap though. And is this in the latest agreement and where??? Or is it just a local thing.

If you drive You get paid 40-42p a mile and that includes travel time as well as fuel.

If you got a bus ticket you get that paid in full along with additional journey time i presume.

I'm a non driver but i knew i was correct. Not many managers are aware or maybe they choose to ignore this.

Thanks for your help.
