Go back saying you want to implement 2 hours on 2 hours off on CSS, with manual work making up the content shortfall, if they refuse, show them the nation policy about the above, would give a copy now, but I appear to have lost it.

Thats in Mail centres, in Delivery offices it's 2 hours on, 20 minutes off due to a less variety of work thats available.

We do nights at my D.O.
we have 2 machines, with 3 staff.
no duties for sorting, but we are expected to fill our duty with other office work if we complete CSS work early (which isn't often), which can include sorting, tipping mail, bagging up bulky frames and sorting packets etc.

We have temporary night duties at my office...1 person for each section ie 3 separate postcodes. Don't know how long they will be in for, they did remove them but that only lasted 1 day due to the office failing completely so they were reinstated the next day. We also have 2 WSM's in with 5 staff but there is talk of reducing that down to 3.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
