Duty holder instructed to....

Post by makingsounds »

come off his duty to cover another walk. He is on a driving duty within the unit but is being instructed to do an uncovered walk or be sent home. Is there a policy on this, we've had reserves etc moved but a duty holder has always been a no go, your thoughts please.

Everyone's 318 will have a line on it that reads something like "or as directed", using that, if your trained, there's no medical reasons and you've got time in your duty, they can have someone doing whatever
