This is the wording of the strike
The strike will cover all duties and scheduled attendance commencing between the period at or after 04:00 on Friday 26th August 2022 and before 04:00 on Saturday 27th August 2022. The industrial action will be discontinuous.
The strike does mean if your duty commences before 04:00 on Saturday 27th you will be on strike for your whole shift. The wording is all duties and SA commencing at or between 04:00 on Friday 26th and before 04:00 on Saturday 27th.

We have midnight and 0200 starts at our Mail Centre so we work these on the Friday morning and don’t work these (ie. strike) on the Saturday morning.

The strike does not end at 04:00 on Saturday 27th August. If your a night duty holder which starts after 04:00 on Friday 26th August but your duty commences before 04:00 on Saturday 27th August then you will strike for the whole shift Friday into Saturday 27th August.
