That's why we have posting pegs.
I disagree, you can have a moments loss of attention you know. It does happen. You could apply your harsh logic to just about anything.
PDA's/Pens/Posting Pegs/Notice Lefts/Van Keys/Signing sheets for when the PDA inevitably runs out of power. When do we get a belt for all this shite?
What we need is a Utility belt............like BATMAN!!

Posting pegs bahahahahaha! I don't know ONE person who uses these things, seriously. If I used posting pegs on all my 'dog' houses you could add another 20 minutes to my daily hours.
Unfortunately 'd2d's are your friend' did not follow proper procedure,any compo claim would be laughed at.
Manager has to authorise the claim by the looks of the form also.
It was a lapse in concentration,a 'possible' conduct issue,would be best to learn from it and move on.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been. My BFF Clash The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
So,he's got to fill out the compo form,which has to be counter signed by his manger,and probably by the same manager who has threatened him with the conduct code for not following proper procedure even though the said dog is known to the business as a hazzard by the walk log.
Does Ruupa do conduct cases as well?

have you filled out the green LS3 form from your rep for a claim
Yes ,manager went through Erica on office pc.
Haven't filled LS3 form. No loss in earnings.
Just the pain of a throbbing swollen finger all week.Probably scarring .Prescription,dressing cost ,transport cost to and from hospital and the total hassle and worry of getting a septic finger and having it chopped off.
Royal Mail have more or less covered their backs. We don't have use of the dog reminder cards where you throw in the frame and take them out on delivery.I feel that I would have a much healthier looking finger if we where using the cards at our office.

the manager does not have to counter sign the LS3
the action will be between simpson and miller and the house holder
the only imput from royal mail will be the repayment of any sick pay
forget the politics for a minute
this is a personal injury
also
do you not have the hazard card that updates the WRAP when out on your walk

Thats what your gonna be asked my management....and you could find yourself on conduct for not using it.
the employer is irrelevant in all this
no time off for sick pay etc
he is still at work so why all the talk of a conduct code issue
I asked the hospital doctor about how long the swelling would remain because RM were pressurising me to get back to work ,he wrote me a sick note for a week and stated there's no way I could work with my injury.

The dog owner was not in but a joiner who was working on an house opposite gave me first aid and let me wash the wound(many thanks). It had stopped bleeding so decided to walk back to the SPDO where I dropped off carded packets and rest of the mail I had in my trolley.There was also two bags left in pouch box which I told the manager about .Apparently somebody on overtime finished off the delivery.
