The Communication Workers Union met Royal Mail yesterday in ACAS facilitated talks. Disappointingly, Royal Mail simply concentrated on reiterating their business plan and previous offer that the workforce has already overwhelmingly rejected.
Again CWU made it clear that we wanted fresh talks. We explained that we were not against modernisation nor had we asked for a 27% pay rise. We told Royal Mail that they needed to take their employees with them and that change needed to be underpinned by raising postal workers pay.
Consequently CWU Postal Executive are meeting today at 2pm to access the situation and decide on whether to proceed forward with an announcement on strike dates which is very likely.
A press statement will be made straight after.
