Tabletop Revision figures

[Neverwasadoor]

Martin,
have the overlay forecast figures to establish if you have already made the productivity improvements needed been released yet?
Cheers.

Hi yes these were released on Thursday via a joint meeting with SDL and Divisional Reps. This also included a Joint Statement and a step by step guide for the local rep and DOM to undertake the revision.

Each offices will get their weighted traffic for the reference period of 27-30 2019 and their work hours. Then this will be overlaid with the traffic or 27-30 2020 and them updated by the commercial forecast from April 2021/22 which is 0.2% on the 2020/21 period.

This will then give the delivery units their target work hours after the productivity improvement your unit was listed to achieve in one of the 6 categories.

You will plan your table top revision on the assumption that there are no covid restrictions such a pre starts , extra nights , extra transportation and that 2 in the van are back. However if those COVID restrictions are still needed to ensure employees safety than they will be a reason why your unit could not achieve the WIPWH target performance.

After every office has made their improvement the following are the headlines There will be 880 offices having to do a table top revision in line with the Pathway to Change Agreement.

304 offices have more hours in their table top revision then they did in 27-30 2019

299 will have between 1-50 hours less.

150 between 51-100 hours less.

The remainder of offices are with big units which have currently over 4000 hours within so you expect a bigger sum of hours to go.

Or offices who have been impacted by the government stay at home policy and have less traffic in 2020 then they did in 2019. These will be offices who have an airport in their catchment , university or are mainly a business based area such as the city of London who have 25% less traffic.

We have agreed clear guidance on those offices as when the COVID restrictions are lifted some or all of that traffic will return and that in itself will improve the productivity of those office and that needs to be taken into account.

Additionally the SWW will count towards the units productivity improvement so if you have 50 full timers then automatically that will mean 50 hours of productivity improvement.

The information should have now been sent out to all the offices due to undertake a table top revision.

Thanks for the quick reply,
will there be a list people can look at like before to see what their office has to achieve or is it just sent to each individual office?
Thanks again.

[Martin Walsh]

The aim is to send it to the delivery office. It has been broken down on the basis of the 20 Senior Director Level (SDL ) so you Area Rep will have all the delivery offices within their representative area.

If there are any specific units you want information for PM I will supply them.

33 hours was mentioned to us for our office. We asked our rep what plans or ideas were ongoing. His reply spoke volumes.... "I dont care, as long as my walk is shortened!!!!!" Absolute priceless!! I cant wait for the carry on show to commence!!!

[daveyeff]

bloody hell. how did he get voted in?

[Frankie15]

He didnt. He just stepped in as no one else wanted it. He basically only wanted it himself for the work releases for his meetings with the DOM. Meetings that none of us are informed about. The guy does anything to get out of doing his duty!!! This table top in our place is going to be very very interesting!

[Martin Walsh]

If it is 33 hours than the majority of that will come from the introduction of the shorter working week. If you have more than 33 full timers then your home in a boat.

[Frankie15]

We've got 9 in our division

[Martin Walsh]

What do you mean by Division? How many full timers in your office ? The table is based on the whole of your office ?

[Frankie15]

Oh right. I'm off on leave and one of the boys I work with was saying to me on the phone that he heard it was 33 hours per unit/division. If you're saying it's per office then that's a different story. That's what I've said on an earlier post, we're in the dark as to the plans and it's all guess work!!!!

[Martin Walsh]

Frankie if you email me your office I will be able to look and give you the actual figures.

[Marshamp11]

How I see the revision affecting me. I cannot complete now and I probably will not be able to complete after the revision. So business as usual cut off go home on time.

My office is down for a structural revision . At the moment we are a all apart from firms and a support driver do Van share duties with only the driver in the van . Out of the two walks we are lucky to complete one and have casuals also doing walks with the increase in parcels and when we get back in the van together i still can't see us completing. The word revision means cuts , i've rarely seen hours put in so i will be interested to see what proposals there is.
