Yes check your contract of employment I think it bans you from taking employment from direct competitors.norfolker wrote:Require local people 16+ to deliver leaflets in this area, to a minimum of 500 homes.

Don't personally wish to apply but just think this is quite worrying more of our work being taken away perhaps?

I believe that you need to get RM's consent before taking on a 2nd job - I was offered a 2 week contract which I was going to full fill whilst on AL, checked with HR and they said no and that wasn't even for a competitor.TrueBlueTerrier wrote:Yes check your contract of employment I think it bans you from taking employment from direct competitors.norfolker wrote:Require local people 16+ to deliver leaflets in this area, to a minimum of 500 homes.

Re: Do you want to be paid for keeping fit?
Leaflet distribution companies are everywhere. I used one in a previous job. On a side note, they weren't that reliable. I gave them strict instructions I did not want leaflets distributed to council/ housing association estates, due to my product being for home owners only. I got a reply from a council tenant and I was not happy, I demanded 300 leaflets distributed free of charge and got it.
So, I wouldn't be too concerned, they've been about for years, they come and go thinking it's an easy buck but rarely do companies last. Many of the leaflets end up in a distributor's garage on a bonfire or in the local recycling plant!

Somebody called me a cult the other day, well I think that was what he said!

Any thoughts? yes when they keep leaving them hanging out of letterboxes, leave them on the floor if they fall out whilst posting.
