Asked to train someone in my duty

Post by mjt120 »

Hi. Iv been asked to train one of my colleagues on my full time duty. I have no problem with this, am I entitled to any extra payment for doing this trainig was told all training should be done by the work place coach, so would I be entitled to that work place coach payment. Our work place coach wouldn't know my duty to train anyone on it.
Is there anything official I can show manager if that is the case.

Thank you.

You get the daily allowance for training a new start.
I don't think you get anything for showing someone how to do a duty.
It isn't training.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

More proof that the workplace coach roles are a waste of time and money .

You're not training your colleague, just showing them round your route. Less work for the same money while they're with you :chuckle

I would rather train someone to do my duty myself, at least I know they will do it right then.
