New starter uniform

Post by Jongall0211 »

Hope someone can help.
Had my induction yesterday and first day at do today.
Tried to order uniform when I got home but was told I was not on the system yet.
How long would I have to wait for this?

Your pay number is your username and Delivery is the password.

To give you an idea of what to order this is the uniform guide.

Some of the items like the Stormproof are not available to new entrants.

I had the same problem - Give the helpline a call, they'll update the system and 24 hours or so later you should be able to start ordering your uniform.
I am no longer a number :-)

hi
am still waiting for mine after working for just over six months. the main problem was the system kept blocking me out for no reason, can't complain too much since my manager got everything sorted out
