specialist footwear

Post by whatamess!! »

Can you help,

If you need specialist footwear due to a foot problems, should royal mail pay for them? Or should royal mail still supply them? I understand they should meet a certain standard, but how would you know if they do?

Thanks if anyone has any doc's on this.

It used to be the case that if you had a Dr's note explaining why you couldn't wear RM issue footwear they would give you £30 (possibly £50) towards a pair.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

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.
