Erica.

Post by BB brother »

Hello all.
A van door swung and cracked me on the head last week. Blood, lumps and nearly vomit. ( Excuse my graphic description )
The acting manager wouldn't let me near the Erica system and instead I had to put it in an earlier shifts ' Near-miss ' Book.

When I raised this to the manager today on his return and said id like it logged for reference on any studies or reports into this I was told that an Erica had to be completed with 24 hours or not at all.
I kind of think hes a big fat lying #@&%"ard.
Am I right ?

Yes you've been done over,and tbf this is quite serious.

Get area rep involved,put a grievance in against both managers as well.
The managers are skating on thin ice with this,the scum.

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.

1. The accident book or equivalent must be readily accessible.
2. It is a matter for the employee, not the employer or any one acting on behalf of the employer, whether an entry is made in the accident book or equivalent.
3. There is no restriction on the nature and type of accident and injury that can be entered into an accident book or equivalent. It is for the employee to determine whether or not they have sustained a personal injury and whether they have been involved in accident.
4. There is no restriction on the time within which an accident has to have occurred in order for an employee to make a record in the accident book
or equivalent. Regulation 25(3)(b) implicitly recognises that an entry may be made in an accident book at some point after the accident occurred.
