What agreement does it state that once you sign for an advertised duty you cannot sign for another duty until 12 months have passed.

Thanks

I’ve now found the relevant ruling in the Way Forward agreement. Has this been adapted or changed in any other agreements since?

can't put my hand on a link, but it's definitely 12mth unless some safety issues are there on current duty, i.e some threatening behaviour etc.

I was refused a full time duty point blank by my dom, as the only applicant, as he said only full timers were allowed to apply. His justification was that he needed the hours taken out of the office.

Load of rubbish if you ask me, even the union rep agreed with him.
