How is this a thing? We have had to scan in and out for months and months at this point. People are still finishing early?
Yep. Also shared vans taking it in turns to sign each other out while one of them go straight home in their car from the round :no no

Pretty dumb when they should sign off when they finish 'out on the walk' and their partner just take the PDA back to the office:
It is recognised that in some locations agreed operational arrangements and overtime
arrangements/commitments are in place which mean that individuals do not return to the unit after
completing their delivery, it is confirmed that individuals can use a combination of the Static PDA and
Walk PDA to record start/finish of the duty.

Chances are though they would then be signing out early.

That’s right. That’s why they are signing out for each other back at the office.

People should return to the office and then that avenue for RM to conduct code when it feels like it, is closed.

So he was using the data to work out which was spending most of their time sitting in the van.
Maybe they're busy filming company propaganda for 'TikTok' like that woman ;)

Shark theory: the PDAs constantly have to move forward or RM will die.

You can sign in and out on your PDA
Some days there’s no need to go back if it’s near your time and the van is going past your home

I would expect them to at some point. It should be linked to payroll so you get paid for exactly what you work. What will probably happen is any extra minutes will get chopped off and if you're late too often you'll get a disciplinary.
We have around 150 delivery posties, we cant all scan in dead on start time?

Manager's should have ensured that enough static devices were put in place to manage this sort of scenario - but then again managers are supposed to do a lot of things to earn their 40k but don't.
