Can anyone tell me whether this document 'Moving Empty Yorks' is still in force.
I regularly see people pushing 3 nested yorks onto a tail lift on a sloping loading bay.
It looks like an accident waiting to happen.

Surely a manager or supervisor would be accountable if they let this go on considering the last paragraph of the document.

As i posted somewhere else 246,managers and shuttle drivers do that as well,i can't so i dont.
A lot depends on the person pushing/pulling them,i'm an average build,someone smaller can't do what i can do,and someone larger can do more than me.
If you or anyone feels they can't do something,don't do it.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
