Don't do it.. He is trying to boost his delivery figures.. If there is no safe place instruction on label then there is no safe place. You will be accountable for any missing items.

Re: official: doorstep all parcels ?
I think delivery to a neighbour is ok. im trying it and not had any complaints from engibhours yet
apparently we have to reach a target with this track thing and if we don't our main customers such as amazon will not use us for Christmas
he told the whole office so everybodys been told the same thing
I might e-mail moya about this see what her team says

If its tracked or signed for I never leave with a neighbour, just 739 it.
Guarantee if anything goes astray then it will be your head on the block, no-one else's.

Re: official: doorstep all parcels ?
Why are tracked treated like specials - they only cost 40p extra to businesses!
and cost us time.
Why are lino's paid full-time ??

Re: official: doorstep all parcels ?
We were asked to try delivery to neighbour for Tracked items. DOM's target is 90% First Time Delivery (FTD), in line with our competitors?
Now those of us attempting delivery to neighbours are achieving approx 95%. This helps reach the DOM's target, making up nicely for those who won't do it.
If unable to deliver to neighbours we're to try re-delivery on trip back to DO, time allowing of course.
Absolutely NO doorstepping allowed in principle but of course, to reach high FTD rates in practice means leaving items in unsecure porches.
sooooooo...... Doorstep Tracked parcels in line with our competitors

And out of a job when the item goes missing. There's no way I'm doorstepping when it's against the official policy.freelunch wrote:We were asked to try delivery to neighbour for Tracked items. DOM's target is 90% First Time Delivery (FTD), in line with our competitors?

Re: official: doorstep all parcels ?
Not our problem - RM has strict doorstepping rules so they can't have it both ways.
