Finger Scanning Technology Parcels Agreement

Post by Red Robbo »

Can anyone tell me if there is a National Agreement on the implementation using finger scanning technology for parcels in Royal Mail?

We are still at the trials stage and our mail centre in dorset will continue with this. I do not know if an agreement has been achieved at national level yet but it will be a case of when and not if

Cheers whisperingstar24 , only we have been told it will be introduced in the near future and to expect training on it, our fear is it could be used as a tool for monitoring performance .
