LTB 158/25 – NEC DECISION TO TRANSFER ROYAL MAIL ENGINGEERING & RMPFSL MEMBERS CURRENTLY IN T&FS BRANCHES TO POSTAL BRANCHES
No. 158/25
30th July 2025
Dear Colleague,
NEC DECISION TO TRANSFER ROYAL MAIL ENGINGEERING & RMPFSL MEMBERS CURRENTLY IN T&FS BRANCHES TO POSTAL BRANCHES
Branches will be aware via LTB 037/25 dated 19th February that for historical reasons there are c.725 Royal Mail Postal & Technical Services (PTS) members aligned to T&FS Branches rather than Postal Branches.
Earlier this year, the NEC made the decision to transfer the PTS members into Postal Branches and a HQ Working Group was established, led by Andy Furey, Assistant Secretary, with the support of Andy Mercer, President, on behalf of the T&FS Executive, Alan Tate and Rob Wotherspoon, Postal Executive members.
The Working Group, which was supported by the SDGS and Membership Departments, was tasked with establishing exactly which T&FS Branches had Postal members and to identify the best fit in terms of a transfer to the most logical Postal Branch based on a number of factors. This work has now been completed, with input from the PTS Field Officials, and we are ready to action the transfers from 1st August 2025.
A meeting was held earlier today with the Branch Secretaries of the Postal Branches who will be receiving PTS members to explain that we anticipate a seamless transition and that there will be no impact upon IR or H&S structures, with the transfer being simply a union organisational matter. A letter is being sent to the receiving Branches confirming the details.
Additionally, a letter is being sent to all affected T&FS Branch Secretaries along with the details of the transferring members. Also, a home mailing is being sent directly to the PTS members who are transferring Branches to inform them of the reasons for the NEC decision and to let them know their new Postal Branch and the contact details for the Branch Secretary.
If there are any queries in relation to this activity, please email Andy Furey – afurey@cwu.org.
Yours sincerely,
Karen Rose
Deputy General Secretary (T&FS)
Martin Walsh
Deputy General Secretary (P)

I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
