@RaithRovers I can't remember a Rovers team who have bored the tits off of me to the extent this one does. Not even upset, just bored. To be fair though, the players look equally bored and uninterested.
@RaithRovers Love this ❤️
Using a pic of him where he looks a bit sad - excellent.
The lack of info until the reader clicks on the article - excellent.
Board statement r.e. rejecting offers from a bottom half championship club - excellent and a level of pettiness I very much approve of.
@RaithRovers@FordsDalyLegal How many times is his going to happen this season? As soon as Arbroath scored I said it would be 3-2 soon. It's that predictable. Completely downed tools at 1-2.
@PC_Angry@SimonClarkeMP Even in the picture it's peeling off. Do you not think that if he'd stuck it on himself he'd have done a better job? Where I come from we call these people 'widden'.
@PC_Angry@SimonClarkeMP@SimonClarkeMP Calling for the end of someone's career before bothering to learn the facts of the matter. That shows a clear lack of intelligence if nothing else.
@_p2baa I still think UTD will be too strong and will win the league however this is becoming my favourite thing about twitter 🤣 Be a good sport and write us off every week please mate 🙏
@PoliceScotPulse Diabetic here. Only type 2 but I certainly notice the difference when I don't get meal breaks.
Thankfully it doesn't happen too often where I work but there's bound to be diabetics out there who frequently don't get breaks.
The Importance of Refreshment Breaks for Police Officers: Health, Safety, and Legal Implications 🥩🥪🌯🌭🥡
The taxing nature of policing work often pushes officers to their limits. While operational demands can sometimes interfere with regular breaks, the regular denial of these breaks has broader consequences than just temporary discomfort for officers. It is not only about adhering to working regulations but also ensuring the health, safety, and well-being of our staff.
Officers who continuously miss their breaks are more susceptible to the adverse effects of fatigue and dehydration. Tired, hungry, or dehydrated officers are not only at a heightened risk of being involved in accidents, but their cognitive functions might also be impaired.
Making judgments, reacting to emergencies, or even performing routine tasks can become more challenging and risky under such conditions. Therefore, if an officer misses more than one full refreshment break over a series of consecutive shifts, it should be regarded and reported as a 'near miss'.⚠️
Under the Workforce Agreement, #PoliceScotland has a defined responsibility. The organisation is mandated to exert "all efforts" in ensuring that officers get the breaks they're entitled to, as per the Police Service of Scotland Regulations 2013. Beyond just the operational efficacy, it's crucial to understand the Health and Safety implications that come into play when an officer doesn't get their entitled rest break.
Where an officer is prevented from receiving a full refreshment break more than once in a run of shifts (i.e. a series of shifts rostered on consecutive days between sets of scheduled Rest Days) should be recorded as a near miss.
Moreover, it is absolutely impermissible for any working practice, shift plan, or operational directive to disregard the provision of rest breaks for officers. Such a lapse doesn't only violate the officer's rights but might also breach the Working Time Regulations 1998.
The necessity for breaks becomes even more pressing when we factor in the potential for unlawful discrimination, as per the Equality Act 2010. For instance, not providing adequate rest breaks might disproportionately affect colleagues with medical conditions, like diabetes.
Furthermore, continuous shift work has been linked to an increased risk of developing diabetes. Therefore, to curb this risk, it's imperative to offer both the time and facilities for the preparation and intake of healthy meals.
⚠️ Not getting your meal breaks? Submit the near miss ⚠️
@tntsports Getting a bit annoying that the commentator on the Aston Villa game is telling us what has happened in advance of it happening on our screens. He's clearly commentating to the live footage in front of him rather than the slightly delayed footage on TV.
@benthespaniel@CalumA_Steele@DvdHmltn I don't think the Fed do themselves any favours. Going by the below the Fed must now feel that officers have been insulted, disrespected and that there has been an abuse of power over us surely? I'd argue they shouldn't be putting out statements like that then buckling 🤷
I bet that @CalumA_Steele and @DvdHmltn really miss the outpouring of gratitude that tsunamis the Feds after every pay settlement announcement
I mean, all the Feds have to do is get everything and more
For all those keyboard critics - here's a suggestion stand for election
An agreement has been secured on police pay for 2023/24. There will be a 7% pay and allowance rise backdated to 1 April 2023. This agreement ensures a cumulative 12.35% increase in police officer pay since 1 April 2022 which mirrors wage growth for the fire service and teachers.
@KiloPapaD11@ScotsPolFed They're doing their utmost to make sure we don't get a pay rise anyway and it's easy for them to do as the Fed have no power whatsoever 🤷 Guaranteed if there is an agreement it will be well below what has been asked for.
@DanielHatch1@ScotsPolFed Good idea Daniel let's start a campaign to xhange the law which will take years to happen, if at all. In the meantime nobody gets a pay rise #priorities
Our pay claim of 8.5% for colleagues is fair and just. We cannot help observing that money for pay was found for other groups of workers, teachers, fire fighters, nurses and doctors. spf.org.uk/media-release-…#NoStrikeFairPay
@ScotsPolFed This is just going to drag on forever isn't it? Also I would be surprised if the pay index happens for how on earth would they be able to bend us over a desk next time round?
