Nationally agreed amount of parcels per hour?

[Exrep]

3 minutes for each heavy and large item.

15 equates to 45 minutes then factor in your travel time and clear down.

We were told in our work time learning that an official report has decided that it takes 8.5 seconds to complete a delivery to neighbour!!!!!

Yep and there is an LTB about it http://www.royalmailchat.co.uk/communit ... 15&t=77142" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

LTB 652.16 External Mediation : Delivery to Neighbour Values

During the period of the review referred to in 1) and 2) above, the status quo of a value of 8.2 seconds for door step transactions, which includes the task of ‘delivery to a neighbour’, is applied.

so that isn't enough and makes you wonder what the negotiators really think we do

The most crazy thing about this is that they are timing functions in fractions of a second.

Well I worked at Parcelforce for 6 weeks as a temp and although I was given much less than the regulars they usually have on average 130 drops a day and that is between 9ish and 4pm and everything is loaded up in one go usually in 3 areas.
