318'S

Post by The Sarge »

Do 318's still exist? In our office we have all manner of different contracts e.g. 40, 30, 22.5 hours. The part-timers always end up doing all kinds of walks. Nothing is written down for the duties which causes 9deliberate?) confusion as to what people can claim in hours and allowances. I suspect this is a nasty mixture of cock-up and conspiracy.

Does anyone have any views of advice on how to get what the duty entails in a written form? :crazy:

Cheers Shelley. So how do we find out what our duties are? I am not being flippant I really would like to know.

Oh look another blatant lie from a dum, how unusual . . . . . . of course 318's still exist, how else would we all know what we're supposed to do on a daily basis. . . . . fact is most dums want them hidden away 'coz they know if we follow what they say we just can't get it all done . . . . . if they won't show you a 318 just ask exactly what your duty content is. . . . . . so I say, yet again, do the job properly, follow the 318, use the provided equiptment, follow health and safety guidelines, take your breaks and finish on time
