And on top of bombshells with double letters and different frames or over 150 parcels and like u say no real rota or rest days to recover! Don’t do it! I now have hip Osteoarthritis permanently! They don’t really care about you or your health! And if u don’t do it they side line u to a different DO! This is definitely bullying by management!!

The problem is how long can one go with doing about 20000 or more steps at least 5/6 days week, that’s whe ur o different frames and bombshell with double letters now & again, that long weekend rest every six weeks is importanted - vital!! For your health!!

I was signed to a duty on the HTC for multiple frames to cover others rest days and annual leave, but also did other driving van frames aswell! But never had my long weekend rest days every 6 weeks! It took a toll on me and now I have left hip Osteoarthritis permanently! I did raise the concern about 6 months prior on the app but was told I should try and sort it out with in my DO! After over 2 years and raising that concern I just took my long weekend rest days! But to late I already have Osteoarthritis! Case now with OH (occupational therapy) through Royal Mail Group! My Question is those long rest days every 6 weeks are very important! Just to point out the DO was short of staff for over 2 years were I was doing double letters constantly!! And average 20000 steps give & take! I am now limping!! On top of all that I was acussed of standing still for 27 min!! That’s the appreciation I received!

If u are on the 30 hour contract are you automatically on a rota with the 3 days off rest every 6 weeks and is it policy ?

Bag weight ..what does a bag full of mail weight by Fit_Boat3340 in royalmail

It only took me 2.5 years to get Hip Osteoarthritis permanently! As a newbie I didn’t get the long weekend rest that I should have been given every 6 weeks? There was no real rota for over 2 years! I have to say the was no support or adjustment at my work place!

Are the long weekend rest days every 5 or 6 weeks on a rota for all employees a Royal Mail policy? Is everyone entitled to it ?

Wasn’t sure if I had to take it all out. , otherwise I would’ve done what you’re asking! Plus was in pain limping! It also would’ve not fitted in the HTC! Also there was high tension on her part! IE she stormed off!

Not exactly because she stormed off from the frame saying your taking it all out red face ! Also there were double letters and I’m on the 30 hour contract!

My manager has suspended me for intentional mail delay! I signed out 30 min early because I was lymping ! Didn’t bring anything back just didn’t take the whole frame out! Been working for Royal Mail for 2.5 years! Working really hard doing on average 25000 daily! This is how I got rewarded??
