In our office we haven’t had overtime for around 6 weeks! Been told to work to our time and we are not needed to work our days off!

So what happens Monday when u get the parcels only shaft from the Saturday?
With the bank holiday and the keeping of the mail from Saturday I claimed 2 and a half hours overtime.
If they refuse to pay you won't ever get on top of it.

Should have got it authorised before hand. Generally there has been a cap on o/t in delivery. Yes things don’t get straight till Thursday but it ain’t our prob.
