Think the point is, that on 20 hrs /5days they don't have enough time (4hr) a day to do a complete delivery. They should be on 4 day weeks and even then it'd be tight at 5hrs a day, to do complete delivery. Another case of pseudo zero hrs contract employment practice. I.e not paying new starters the contract hrs with which to complete a delivery. Let's face it, are there any deliveries that can be done in 4hrs?celtic1967 wrote:Aren't van share duties set up so that both partners finish time is the same, ie the PT one starts later ?

In my experience no and it is not exclusive to van duties, you can say the same in my depot as regards HCT duties (where duty holder often has a very different daily contracted hours compared to the day off cover). We are so short-staffed they rely on the PT coming in early to help prep and a number of FT staff working their full day off every week without fail.celtic1967 wrote:Aren't van share duties set up so that both partners finish time is the same, ie the PT one starts later ?

If your reserves are continually working above their contracted hours this should be reviewed jointly every six months and the hours should be increased to reflect the hours that have actually been performed over that period. This is in the legally binding part of the 'Agenda for Growth, stability & Long Term Success' agreement. As a rep i continually log and review the hours my PT people do. As a result i have just had all 25hr contracts made into 28hrs and a part timer lifted to FT
