    SWR Guards Recruitment 2021

    not true in this case, you’ll be doing less hours weekly than currently but you’ll be paid the same, so a technical pay rise. Plus you’ll lose dispatch so there’s less safety critical work on your behalf.

    Vaccine Progress, Approval, and Deployment

    Vaccine Progress, Approval, and Deployment

    I already explained the reason why yesterday From next week they are starting to ramp up 2nd jabs for the over 85's again and need to make sure they have enough to be able to give them out without delay.

    Vaccine Progress, Approval, and Deployment

    They are also holding back on supplies for the 2nd doses. We are about to enter the period where we need to give over 17m people their 2nd jabs

    SW Rail Guard Training - Covid

    Think they're calling off their mobile's at the moment as they're not in the office, it's been a mobile number the past few times. Obviously, I cannot pass that number on but thought I should let you know

    "Matching" Online Assesment

    I had to do this one when applying to be a guard and found it incredibly tricky, nothing like the assessments I had to do with SWR!

    Must be restrictions on the vaccination hubs compared to GP surgeries / hospitals
