Hello, wondering if anyone can help me with a bit of a dilemma i've been having with the duty i'm currently covering. The duty has a good few streets with steep inclines i don't believe an lwt is fit for the duty, (it's honestly playing hell with my wrists dragging one of them behind me up these streets) when the duty was being revised i raised the issue and was told i would be able to loop from the van. But i'm being told different things all the time like i HAVE to use an lwt or get into trouble etc etc.
is there any official documentation regarding using a lwt and streets with steep inclines? what procedures would have to be followed to prove i should/shouldn't be using one?
Thanks :)

Re: lwt and steep inclines
There is a document on here which for the life of me i can't find that mentions something about % of how steep a hill is ect.
Maybe this will jog someone's memory.

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.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
