Entitled to pay for "Induction"?

Post by scoobymuun »

Hi folks, last week I had my induction, which was actually shadowing a postie on his route for the day, am I entitled to pay for this? I wasn't shown any sign in sheet though?

Thanks!

Angard Casual. Does that make much difference? I'm on a zero hour contract so unsure when/if I'll be hearing from them again.

Only in the level of your pay. :sad:

However, for the forums, and any future advice it would best if you updated your membership to Angard. Some of the rules, allowances and agreements are different to that of Royal Mail.

In fact it would help if all members updated their membership for the same reasons. :thumbup

Updated. :oops: Thanks a lot for responding! I'll give them a ring and see what they say.

Cheers!
