IRP

Any DCs still have access to the jump code IRP?

Ours has been gone for awhile but seeing if it was a pyramid wide end to access or building specific change.

Jump code allowed for TMs to track productivity.

It is pyramid wide. They don't want you to know how many cartons per hour.

That's unfortunate.. I would rather have people hit an expectation and stop than never make it to the expectation.

Wow I didn’t realize it was a company wide thing. Also IRT worked as well as IRP. I understand, but don’t like the reason they stopped, it’s one of those things where they want you to go above and beyond even though you work fast enough to meet the parameters. Like in cart air if you pull 300 cartons in an hour when the goal is 200 so you can relax and goof off the next hour. They will still wonder why you have too much of a scan gap and say something along the lines of “well you could have pulled 400 if you kept up the pace! God forbid you hit goal quick so you can take a breather lol

Your concept sounds nice but in reality it's a business and they're not paying anyone to take a breather. Also when you say "hit goal quick", are you working safe and on process? Watch those scan gaps!

I personally do try to work safe but an example would be if I happened to be in CA and get labels with a dense amount of cartons of the same product, like over 100 cartons of lets say…. Gatorade, random glass bottles of something or La Croix. That shit wears me out and sometimes I slow down after that. I’ve never personally been coached but I understand when ppl complain about getting lectured on their scan gaps when their numbers are already above expectation. They actually post our numbers twice a night on days that they feel like it. They used to have our names on the board but now they use our employee numbers. I’m sure ppl complained because they were embarrassed lol
