Re: revisions and delivery spans
There is no limit to the delivery span other than the avaliable hours in your attendance patterns.
Obviously if your office wants 4 day weeks you're going to have to fill your day with meaningful work and on a 9hr+ day that's probably going to mean 6hr+ deliveries.
If you stick to a basic 5 day on a 37hr week there's a limit to what you can achieve with a 7hr 24 minute day minus break minus travelling time minus indoor work.

Re: revisions and delivery spans
If you have mostly part timers (25/30 hr contracts ) then no longer than 5 hrs, if you have mostly full time (35hr+ contracts) then 6 hrs.

Re: revisions and delivery spans
Part of that doesn't make sense as what happens to the part timers. Impossible to have a 6hr span on a 6hr a day (30 hr's per week) partimer.Woody Guthrie wrote: ↑20 Mar 2021, 21:58There is no limit to the delivery span other than the avaliable hours in your attendance patterns.

What no 4 day week whallers are having part timers?
I very much doubt London where the majority of 4 day weeks are, are going to have 6+hr deliveries.

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.

Re: revisions and delivery spans
As far as London's concerned as I said you have to fill your day with meaningful work .
If you can find enough indoor work to do that fair enough it will limit what you can do outdoors but it will probably mean more part-time jobs.

Re: revisions and delivery spans
But you're scare mongering a liddle bit, no part timer is going to be on a 6+hr delivery.......in an office with 6+hr delivery.Woody Guthrie wrote: ↑21 Mar 2021, 11:44As far as London's concerned as I said you have to fill your day with meaningful work .

My statement to you was it didn't make sense. Skimmed or not.

Re: revisions and delivery spans
Not if they're on a 4 day week..Impossible to have a 6hr span on a 6hr a day (30 hr's per week) partimer
Then they wouldn't be a 6hr day.. they would be on a 7.30 hr day.

Re: revisions and delivery spans
Because people are suggesting without even reading the guidelines ! It is simply fake news , no office has to agree 6 hour spans.
The guidelines will be out on Tuesday so not long to wait. On a 37 hour week with 4 hours 20 as meal relief , how does a 6 hour delivery span work when you have to still prep , IPS , collect reg , fill out redirections and travel to and from delivery ?

Re: revisions and delivery spans
Nope, unless there's a local agreement for a 37hr week it's 3hrs on a 6 day week, 3hrs 20 on a 5 day week, 2hrs 30 on a 4 day week and 3hrs on a 3 day week
You'd have to be doing more than 37hrs a week to be able to get 4hr 20 meal relief

Re: revisions and delivery spans
No office has to agree anything Martin but what you agree is very much down to what you've been offered and what are the costs for refusing.Because people are suggesting without even reading the guidelines ! It is simply fake news , no office has to agree 6 hour spans.
No office had to agree to 5hr deliveries and I doubt many members wanted them but they're not fake news they are very real already.

Re: revisions and delivery spans
and the executive know this will come through LOCAL agreements
fit up springs to mind
pay rise should never have been linked to terms and conditions backtracked on that
more to come im afraid
even cwu are looking after themselves from top to bottom
guess who are at the bottom
