No.685/2018

For the Immediate Attention of All:

Dear Colleague

Automated Hours Data Capture (AHDC) and Resource Scheduler – Trials Update

Branches and Representatives will be aware of the trial activity that has been taking place in relation to AHDC and Resource Scheduler (LTB’s 295/18 and 441/18 refer). The current status in relation to both of these trials is that they continue to be the subject of National review and discussion and that no agreements have been concluded in respect of deployment.

For the information of Branches we have however recently become aware of advertisements that have been issued by the business for managerial positions on the Enterprise Team which appear to indicate that both initiatives are to be deployed. Representation has therefore been made to the business on the basis of reaffirming that the commitments contained within the National Guiding Principles Agreement and the Terms of References for both initiatives have not been met and onward deployment has not been agreed.

In response the business has acknowledged that the wording on the job advert appears more definite than the current understanding on the Joint Working Groups would support and have clarified that the adverts have been issued to generate enthusiasm amongst potential candidates. Equally, they have informed us that it would be made absolutely clear to candidates at the selection stage that both initiatives are still subject to joint activity, discussion and National agreement prior to any further roll out.

We will of course report to Branches and Representatives any developments in relation to the outputs of the National reviews at the appropriate time. However, in the meantime you are asked to ensure that should any attempts be made to progress to deployment for either of these initiatives that the relevant department is made aware as a matter of urgency.

Any enquiries in relation to this LTB should be addressed to:

Processing/RDC’s/Logistics: Davie Robertson, Assistant Secretary, email: dwyatt@cwu.org or shayman@cwu.org quoting reference number: (AHDC) 730.13 or (Resource Scheduler) 730.13.

Or

Delivery: Mark Baulch, Assistant Secretary, email: outdoorsecretary@cwu.org quoting reference number: 230.03.

Yours sincerely



Davie Robertson – Assistant Secretary

I cant understand why this is taking so long to be deployed into offices , how many other big companys get there staff to sign a bit of paper on there start time and again on there finish time , and we all know that there not done everyday , but with a clocking machine its simple and it has to be done on your start and finish times .

RM don't want this as it will show up in graphs, tables ect, EXACTLY how much they are getting work done for free. It's never going to be resolved as we all know that delivery offices are all run on an ad hoc basis, walk/loops are totally unfair with some having about 30/40% more mail/parcels depending on the area worked but the DOMS don't want to fix it because when all the posties are at oneanothers throats then the management are winning at the divide and conquer business. EVERYBODY MUST WORK TO THE WAY TH WANT YOUS TO WORK. This is what's so perverse about it, you go against the way the company want you to work (although they actually don't want us to work that way) and then posties complain. The game is rigged.

[postslippete]

Quite correct. When posties were leaving loops, the DOM sent his managers out to make sure that posties were actually using their trolleys Do they think that carrying the bags on the shoulder would actually be slower than using trolley - no - they were just upsetting a few posties because they had a boll*cking from above and they know that 90% of posties don't like using a trolley.
