I doubt it. It was being looked at before Crozier decided Saturday working was a good thing. Of course Crozier, Leighton, Hayes, Ward, Loftus, Keenlyside etc. don't work on Saturdays because that wouldn't be a good thing. It's only a good thing when workers are expected to do it.

My personal opinion is that by the year 2010 we wont be delivering on saturdays. Not many other firms work weekends so think we'll join them. Wont need to make anyone redundant either as all this new flexibilty stuff will have staff leaving in numbers and by 2010 offices will have enough staff to cover duties and wont need hardly any leave reserves

i believe that it only is a matter of time before the Mon-Fri delivers come in, its a way for Rm to make a massive saving & cutting costs, which means more job losses, think about it no more rotates....... perhaps a year or two, but rest assured its on RMs radar
