On a busy night we don't always have time to sequence all the mail so we have to walk sort some of it which takes about 15 minutes to process 5000 letters.
Does this mean that there is a chance we might get back nights in our DO as we lost them all 2yaers ago. If not the later starts are going to get later and if that's the case I am off.
Well yes ,there will be some night duties. But you will get minimum no. of machines to cover office walks. Machines will be run 24hrs to be cost effective, and walks will be dispatched to fit.
Pick a slot ,8-12, 12-4, 4-8,seniority may apply?But in the plan ,all are part time.
