Doubt it, the union won't agree to snooping tools like that being used for performance issues.
It has as already been said they want to use PDA data to establish outdoor performance standards, if they do that do you think they won't be measuring people against them then "coaching" them?

They haven't spent all this money on PDAs for no benefit and they will end up using them as a stick to beat people with wether the cwu likes it or not. They've already started planting seeds by letting it be known to people that they know where they are at certain times

they can try and do what they like but if you do the job right you haven't anything to worry about , they cant compare dutys until they get everybody working the same , bag carrying , no breaks , simple.

If you use trolleys it can add an hour at least on your walk. I don't use them unless mad with packets at Xmas.
if it adds an hour on then so be it claim o/t for it or take it back :arrrghhh ,its part of your job to use lwts unless its built into your duty that you cant use it for whatever reason no footpaths , flats etc. so you walk round with a bag on your back and when you get back to the van you drive round and delivery parcels or pkts out the van on the ground to have just walked ? :crazy:
No fit the packets and parcels in the bag, any oversize gets delivered in the van. Don't get me wrong I do not run round but if it's quicker which carrying the bag is I do not see the problem.

The term "Mandatory" will be a problem if anything goes wrong.

Why what would that do? If your that desperate to go undercover you'd be better off taking the battery off.
