This year 3% pay rise.
Next year move to five day deliveries. (Must cut either sat or mon)
3rd
year All move to 30 hour contracts with 30 min unpaid break per day

Money saved from losing floaters from year 2 (all voluntary redundancies of course) would be offset against current pt getting pay rise to match current ft time pay.
That would solve the reduced indoor workload without going to 6 hour delivery spans.
This ain't no baseball game, you get only one chance and you blew it.

For letters and flats that might happen, for packets i think long term it'll the the opposite, RM will want to introduce Sunday deliveries, maybe with weekend only staff

Can't see any weekdays being cut out of deliveries. Imagine all the businesses around the country being told they aren't getting any mail that day - it would be carnage. I can see in time a 7 day a week service with existing staff covering the 7 days on a rotating basis
