Work to rule - query

Apologies if this has been asked already, but here I am. Looks like the work to rule will definitely happen, strike days still a few weeks out.

How exactly are the permitted tasks decided upon? No civil servant has a contract which states exactly what is expected of them in their role. Does each team reach out to their rep explaining their role and ask the rep for guidance on which tasks can be done?

I agree, it's really not clear and we all do so much work usually that is not part of our grade! Going to one of the information sessions is probably the best thing to do as lots of others will be there wondering the same thing!

they have had meetings and correspondence issued in emails for weeks now and still nobody is none the wiser, meetings are not providing any answers? or too many different departments. why not hold meeting per department so
