It has been brought to the Union’s attention that an increasing number of new PDOs and existing permanent part time PDOs converting to full time employment are not being employed against the normal ordinary hours of duty as determined by the Australia Post Operations Award. It has been reported to the Union that these employees are rostered on 7’21 hours
The CEPU is very concerned by Australia Post’s continued failure to supply straight-forward answers to our questions about the impacts of Future Delivery Design on our members.

The CEPU is still receiving complaints from Delivery members across NSW regarding their inferior wet weather gear issued by Australia Post.
