this just goes to show people who side with the workers who throw boxes all over the place that things can get done working the right way...with the right atitude and a good system...having a good system is the difference whether something gets done fast or slow...i give you an example...i used to be a dishwasher in a very busy restruant...when i work at nite, my coworkers always told me that im fast and that my dishpit area is always clean...so one nite happen to jsut visit the restruant at nite and happen to pass by the dishpit area...the dishpit was piling with dishes, the dishwasher looked upset and frustrated...i could tell he was pizzed and bcuz he was already slamming the dish racks from his frustration...i watched him do his work for a few minutes and the reason why dishes and silverwares were piling up is bcuz he had a bad system...a good system wouldnt haved allowed all those dishes and silverware to pile up...its no different working at the post office...a good system makes for a more organized and quicker results.

That's absolutely no excuse whatsoever to work and behave like that these people should be lucky that got a job in the first place

I worked for Royal Mail, and despite the criticisms, some of them justified I admit. I can honestly say that the work ethic within Royal Mail during my time there, was one of pride and efficiency. And customer care was at the forefront of that work ethic with most people I worked with. The organisation of sorting mail, especially parcels, was far superior, and encouraged that on the whole, items were handled with the best care possible. Of course there are idiots within Royal Mail who do not care about the way they handle items. And such people are duly reprimanded. And accidents do sometimes occur too. But most criticisms from what I can gather, are about items not arriving on time. This is mainly due to changing working practices, and staff having to adjust to these practices, when they have been used to doing things a certain way for many years. Practices implemented by management who don't actually do the job of sorting mail. But on the whole, Royal Mail is STILL the premier mail carrier within the UK. This 'UK Mail' sorting office looks chaotic and untidy. And the staff certainly do not show any pride at all in their work. Shocking and disgusting way to treat customers mail. You would certainly be reprimanded at Royal Mail for treating your work this way, and ultimately sacked if you failed to improve.

i worked for uk mail and can tell you this happens management dont give a toss parcels are flung from the back of a van onto the main sorting line and not enough staff to deal with the amount of parcels coming through. you dont get time to be careful it's non stop. the parcels falling of the line is due to that bit of the belt not being driven so they all just pile up and fall off your expected to run your ass off and try and put parcels away. i can honestley say it was the worst job and work enviroment i have ever experienced.

I spent one day in Ukmail and saw this and management did not care that it was being thrown around glad i wasn't employed by them, the amount of damage in one of their hubs was disgusting

I work for DPD. Package throwing does happen but the bit with the packages falling off the belt isn't because people are throwing them. The packages are mixed heavy and light. When the belts get backed up they don't stop. So the heavier packages push the lighter ones off the belt. We get everything from glasses to flat packed furniture. Package throwing does happen but if you're caught doing it, you get an ear full if not a warning (mostly). We handle anything from 14,000 to 30,000 packages a day depending on the team. So obviously things falling off the belt does happen.

This was recorded 10 years ago, since this documentary and many more express package services gave taken notice. I know because I remember when we used to almost trow packages and suddenly after a documentary about another firm our management changed opinion. This documentary is really helpful because if no one reported about it it would've continued until sale prices went down.

I think it is to be expected that packages will be subjected to a certain amount of rough handling when being moved through a courier's network, which is why we package our items carefully before sending them, but this video appears to show deliberate, wanton abuse, which is not acceptable behaviour.

This is why i never order delicate electronics online, except for pick up at a store.

Anyone bitching about these employees not being paid better... Not one person inside that warehouse was forced to work there. They all knew what they would be earning BEFORE they accepted their positions. So, it's no excuse to show up at your place of employment & perform like a 10-year-old because you think you're entitled to better wages. Act like a responsible adult, earn your paycheck, and thank your lucky stars that you're not living under a bridge. Got a shitty work ethic & a bad attitude? Don't expect much.

They think that's bad. Try going inside Hermes national hub!!!

uk mail: bad at sorting, meanwhile royal mail: transport by train, van and truck

Used to work in one of those places but for other company and this is exactly how it looks like. Rarely packages are handed carefully unless they are flowers haha Even brand new phones were flying round in the boxes. From the other hand you cannot be surprised if people are in the fricking cold, not able to go to the toilet unless they will find someone to cover for them, getting minimum pay working from hired agency. the rule is simple: If you don't appreciate people's work and you don't keep high standards then you will get a shit service- simple.

@MrDannyDetail

The problem is that in a workplace with a culture like that any hardworking person who genuinely tried to be careful with every parcel would inevitably be visibly/measurably slower than all the colleagues around them, and it would be that slowness that would keep getting picked up on by management, rather than their higher standards of care towards the parcels. In such places everything is on a strict timeframe, all profit relies on doing as much as humanly possible in the time available, and it's the people who are the quickest that are deemed to be the best colleagues, more-or-less regardless of their methods of achieving this quickness. I've seen it in the past with both the parcel courier industry and before that in the supermarket industry, and it is always, in my experience, because staff become very heavily conditioned by management to do a fast job rather than a flawlessly good job (or in some cases expect both inhumanly fast work AND absolute perfection, however impossible it is to actually achieve both at once). If the hardworking person in your example did go into the job with the aim of doing a way better job, it would lead to them being picked up on for being slow so often that either they'd lose their resolve and fall into line with the 'standard' that everyone else is 'achieving', or else if they continued to stick to their guns and insist on doing the good job they want to do they'd either get sacked for repeatedness slowness, or more likely, since they are probably agency workers, they'd probably just not get offered any more shifts at that employer, and as such their agency may also then drop them from their books as a 'flexible resource' that they are no longer willing to send out to other employers.

They'll be using sledgehammers next!

if it's like that in the UK, think what it's like in Brazil.

In a similar courier I worked for in the past the manager was rushing around doing all the same work as the rest of the colleagues, but with the added stress of also being manager. In other words one or more of the people in this video could very well be a manager on the shift in question, they are unlikely to be dressed differently in such companies, and as I say are doing the same work as everyone else during most of the shift, so you'd be hard pushed to tell them apart from regular collegues (other than occasionally shouting at everyone else, as mikeg alluded to).

Most companies have a 2m rule, so this explains why 😂😂

They are supposed to deliver packages and people pay too much for such shitty service.

I used to be a parcel and the depot I worked at, This is tame in comparison, However we had 4 zones around the trailer of skips for each area code, And as the trailer was being unloaded we had to throw items off into these zones, I used to be the person on the conveyer belt throwing items off, I tried as often to do so with care and if items were at risk of breaking I would aim for bags on the ground which could be clothes maybe to cushion the blow. Big items such as the old CRT widescreen tv's or furniture etc would be left on the belt to be 2 person lifted into separate zones, If a member of staff was free to take items off they could but we tried to avoid stopping to get the trailers unloaded as quickly as possible, We often had 3 to 4 fully loaded to do each night, Sometimes would get a brucey bonus which would take us well into overtime for when the daytime drivers came in for their usual out sorting / loading to deliver etc This often would put some of us in a bad mood (Me definitely) I was in my young 20's still so had a bit of an attitude but we were all tired and exhausted but had to get the job done! However this system of throwing items off was the only effective way we could get the job done as quickly as possible. Christmas times was the worst though!

Minimum wage = minimum effort. This is what happens when these muppets are forced to do jobs they don't want by JobCentre Plus. I'm guessing its 12 hour days and antisocial hours with no overtime rates or bonus scheme, low moral and no job satisfaction.

I wonder how my local DHLs sorting facility burnt down. I shipped a lot of lipo batteries

It’s the cost of cheap. A courier will arrive there at 6:30 am and not leave the depot until 11:00. Then he has to deliver 150/200 parcels and then make it back with your collections and then go home to his family. The problem is UKMail management treating their drivers like dirt and also the customers when they look down on them or make their life harder.

Looks a lot like what I've heard FedEx distribution centers to be like. Except minus the using of bat shaped objects ones and smaller packages as balls...

I wonder if it was a good idea for DHL to change the branding to their own.

Imagine, what they do in food manufacturing ????

Nothing has changed they are an utterly shameful courier, the web site is an utter disgrace, and to try to contact them by phone is virtually impossible, they are a complete and utter waste of time and effort.

I'm never the one to leave youtube comments ranting, but all these comments defending these "poor employees" who have to "lift heavy boxes all day" what fucking incompetence, terrible. Clearly zero respect shown for their customers property, and that's who owns all these parcels - their customers! I don't see one single employee rushing, I see a group in the back chatting, employees moping around, and one guy taking a few seconds to deliberately aim and swing a bubble wrapped, fragile marked parcel across the room. What an absolute waste!

Well that's one company I won't ever be using. I'm sure they made a hollow statement like "we're investigating it won't happen again blah blah"

I just cant understand why the UKmail MD did not say 'right, this is terrible and now we are going to meet with all depot managers to make sure that our customers goods are now treated with care', no, he said 'we only have 500 damages' , that must just be me then as I must get at least that amount!!

If they're sleeping in the van it probably means they are working multiple shifts virtually back to back and just grabbing a quick bit of kip as and when they can on their break (for the most part it'd be unlikely they would bother to drive back to depot for their breaks). Most courier's van drivers are deemed to be self-employed, and earn only a small amount of money per parcel, so the longer they work the more parcels they deliver and the more chance they have to earn enough to make ends meet. Being self-employed they have no HR department or directly responsible manager to tell them they are working too many hours, so some drivers will take as many shifts a week as they can get across any or all of the three shift patterns (earlies, late and nights). Obviously drivers on nightshift are not delivering to customers (with the possible exception of other businesses where a nocturnal delivery has been agreed) but there are still plenty of self-employed drivers driving van loads of mail between the courier's various depots etc.

This is what happens when you don't pay people enough and you treat them like slaves. This is a very hard job. Moving heavy packages around the whole day non stop with not enough staff. It kills your back. Who would want to break their backs for a mere £7.30 an hour
