sorry where about does it state that?
The 2014 Agenda for Growth agreement states very clearly that lapsing should be considered in relation to predicted mail volumes and specifically states it MUST NOT be used to cover staffing problems.

where about does it state that in the agreement?

I can't find anything in the AFG2014 about lapsing or Arbosprtion apart from in the Delivery Review section which is still ongoing.

If that's the case then BT2010 holds the field and they can, unfortunately lapse on the first day of sickness, but they can't force you to go over.
