Are staff on platforms of LRV required by any law to wear HI-VIS coats or tops, in particular ticket inspectors.

Good luck for Monday , its a really good induction course, intense at times but nothing too really worry about. We have radio course Monday then out on shift with coaches from the 2cnd. Really friendly , helpful staff and thats not just in training but overall. Metrolink seems to be a good...

Yes I'm looking forward to starting. In the post was the contract together with uniform requisition form and a contact / plus references form. All sent back duly signed. So roll on 0830 10/12. First day at Queens Rd.

Medical was on the 12th , got a letter on the 19th confirming the start date.

Anyone had a letter with regards to medicals ? I had my medical 12/11, hopefully start date not too far away now. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Well having completed the medical I now have a start date for the 10/12 !!! So need to take advantage of my M&S discount card before...

I never got a copy of othe CRB but I'm assured its been received by Metrolink. Still not going to hold my breath on a start date , they are still laying cable along the EML. Will just sit tight and see what happens.

I bumped into Wes a few weeks back who gave no indication of opening dates. I am also led to.believe that Metrolink are looking to change employment hours for new PSR roles to keytime hours only. Not sure how true this is. If I don't hear soon I will ring them.

Info is from a letter sent out by TFGM, work commences 10/9, estimated to take 12/14 weeks. Sent to loca businesses in the area. Assume even once cables fitted they will have to carry out further testing.

Well the EML will not be open before Xmas, due to electric cabling all being replaced along it'd entire length. Estimated 12-14 weeks worth of work. Some cables are over 80 years old.

Anyone got any updates, still waiting for a position as a PSR.

According to the workforce manager on the EML they hand over the section to Droylsden completed at the end of July , seeing is believing as it should have been open and running in May !! Test trams have run overnight and the electrics have proved a problem. Hopefully not too far away from...

Matt, i got through the interview stages now just waiting on the medical, CRB check was sent off in May. Hopefully will get to start in the next round of recruitment which i am led to believe will be when the East Manchester line opens sometime in Autumn. Sounds like you are enjoying...

How did you get on ? Did you start on the 11th , if so hows it going..

Thats life mate, you have to get on with it. I think we all know who the shirkers are in our workplace that go off sick when they so desire, and they are the most annoying. But you cant tar everyone with the same brush. The Police introduced a policy which excluded you from applying for...

CRB form now completed, will now just sit and bide my time for a start date/medical. Does anybody know what date in the month Metrolink staff are paid, i forgot to ask.

What you will find is they are not interested because they feel barred in someway, women may not want to be train drivers because its a male dominated role and that the industry in general is likewise male dominated. Ethnic minorities were always suspicous of the Police in there own country and...

I think you will find that many companies are under pressure to recruit from minorities ( hence thats why they place adverts encouraging the same because they are under represented, ) to avoid being accused of racism, sexism etc. The height restriction was removed from the Police to encourage...

No its not ironic.
