plan B now - stop van sharing?

or hct duty then.

That would be nice if HCT duties weren't the first most juciest lapsing target.

Yeah, fair point. They always have an * next to them when they come up saying this duty may be lapsed when required ! Ok, all the time then. You're basically signing just to know your days off in advance.

HCT duties are probably the nearest ones to the DO so they can send anyone out to do them on lapsing, driver or non-driver. Over time there'll be less and less HCT duties as more DOs get relocated away from the area they actually cover

The latest revision in the office I’m at now has added about 6 new HCT duties.

Is your DO located in the area that it covers?

A DOM thinking beyond the immediate implementation of the revision knows to leave something in reserve for next year when the DSM demands more lapsing.

Yeah I know where you're coming from there, park n loop can be great with a decent pairing where you work and get on well together, I've been stung though with partners being on holiday/sick and then being stitched up with the shall we say less desirable postie's that no-one wants to work with, I actually lean towards rural as my preference as I also like being on my own.

Know what you mean. Can't do mine in a combo though , they're just too cramped and low to be getting in and out of 90+ times a day. Peugeot partner much better.

I think van sharing is going to cease soon with Omicron

Q: Are we still allowed to share vans at alert level 4 ?

A :

Yes, providing local risk assessments are still in place, face coverings are worn and the cab is ventilated. If social distancing requirements change we will update. Thanks.
