Well that's what strikes are for to bring them to the table bit hard when there are 3 million more people out of work and a bloody pandemic going on but that is what procrastination brings us on the cusp of a cliff!

It’s no different now.Royal Mail will be telling the union what it will do knowing full well they have to accept it.That explains why we are being kept in the dark.

It’s because he’s been asked a few tough questions on here he can’t answer. Standard union policy. Anyone who follows them on Facebook will know most comments are deleted that may show them in a bad light.

The real question we need to consider is that Royal Mail want to roll out the new GEO Route revision tool called FMO final mile optimisation. Without union involvement Royal Mail planners have imputed 120 revisions based on 6 hour delivery span but with 28 percent letter decline the call rate will reduce significantly.


Thinking about Martin's comments. The only way Royal Mail could achieve a 6 hour delivery span is if we worked a 4 day working week. This would allow for an additional 2 hours of indoor work, prep/IPS, van loading etc that gets done everyday. So if we did 2 hours indoor work + 6 hours outdoor = 8 hours x 4 days = 32 hours FT (excluding the breaks).

I suppose if you've also got staff working a 4 day week that there will also be plenty of cover in case someone rings in sick. Some guys in our depot get a sulk on when they don't get asked to work their day off.
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.

Toon, I have been on this site since 2007 and have never ducked issues even if most posters are critical of my view.

Talks are on going , confident it will be done before Christmas.

Both parties have committed to that.

However I cannot give details as it would be wrong ! Also a lot of my comments get copied onto Facebook.

When I believe there is an agreement in place , I will post further.

Ah come on man give it up with the false hope deadlines. This won’t be done by Christmas as we all know the union and Royal Mail hierarchy will be going on their 2/3 weeks Christmas break this Friday. So unless it’s going to be done tomorrow then no it won’t be done by Christmas. February if we are lucky.

Both parties have committed to that.... oh, have they?....... is that the same way that both parties committed to the 4 pillars agreement?
Remember that one? Whatever, happened to the commitment from both parties on that?
