Meal Break
Can anyone give me clear guidelines on when the meal break should take place for both driver and walkman and also so the policy of taking your break while out on the delivery

Re: Meal Break
When: Nothing specific except that it should be taken somewhere in the middle of the working day http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Employment/ ...

Where: As per the link the business can tell you when to take the break but not where.
Specific to Royal Mail- Sorry AFAIK no specific instructions or guidelines except that the CWU suggest taking the break before commencement of delivery.

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.
