Thank You !

We would like to thank you all for the hard work you have all put in over the last few months during this Cost-of-Living Crisis.

We understand that things have been getting harder for everyone, but unfortunately, until now, we have been unable to increase our charge rates or pay rates due to fixed contracts until April.

The pay rates will all go up for all field-based staff from 1st April 2023. Please speak to your Area Supervisor if you need to know what your new rate will be. in April, however the rate increases will be.

MESSAGE FROM MANAGING DIRECTOR

Hello and welcome to the March edition of our newsletter. Please read it fully as it will help you to keep in touch with the changes in our business and hopefully make your job that little bit easier.

Patrol Points

As most of you know, we have installed patrol points on all of our sites. Training videos have been sent out and information on the patrol points have been sent via WhatsApp. If you are still not sure or comfortable on how to do these, please give us a call.

The points will not go live to the client until 1st of April, however the
operations team will be monitoring these in advance, so that everyone is trained and comfortable on how to do these by then.

These patrol points will be replacing DOBs, but Handovers and Combined Handovers and Resident Checklist will still be on site. The handovers will need to be filled out every night with as much information as possible. Any concerns you have whilst on patrol, can be submitted as an incident in the TelMe app (see training video).

“we have installed patrol points on all of our sites”

If you are working on a Sunday or Monday, please ensure that you send copies of any Handovers to our control room so they can be audited.

TelMe App

It has been reported in the last few weeks that the TelMe app is not opening/functioning properly. We have checked with IT and they asked that you make sure any background apps are closed in order for the app to work properly and reboot your phone. If you continue to experience any issues, please continue to report it to us.

Smartphone Policy

We are introducing a new policy called the Smartphone Policy, to facilitate the use of the new software and work processes. It is now compulsory for all employees and subcontractors who are representing 360 Services to have access to a suitable “Smartphone” throughout their shift. This policy has been sent to everyone via Adobe to sign. If you have any concerns or issues around this, please do not hesitate to contact us and discuss this with us.

Having a smart phone will allow employees to see all Assignment Instructions through the TelMe App as well as conduct patrols, see rota changes, report incidents and alert our Control Room to any dangers that you are facing.

New Staff

We would like to introduce you to our newest additions to the Head Office:

• Jon Turner – Operations Manager – From a strong security management background, Jon replaces Marlon
  Smith who left in early March. He will be visiting all of our sites over the next month, so please make him

  Team.
