Clan Foundry To Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/HH. Clan Foundry (Exptl). c. to Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} WORKING HOURS. With reference to Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/HH/.18.1.40. regarding working hours. We agree to the modified working hours suggested to facilitate the transportation of the personnel. We should be glad if you would make a point of ensuring that these hours are rigidly adhered to. There is a tendency under the present evacuated conditions for punctuality to be disregarded. This is demoralising to all concerned and must be discontinued Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
