LTB 524/16 - Developing Our Vision Policy

No. 524/2016

9th September 2016



Dear Colleagues,

Developing Our Vision Policy

Please find attached a letter that has been sent to the business, the content of which is self-explanatory and makes it clear that we are determined to change the current direction of travel.

It is very important that we all reflect on our Policy Forum held back in March, the documentation and the policy that was adopted. From a CWU perspective, we called that Policy Forum because there was a growing concern amongst our activists and members about the direction of the employer and its commitment to the spirit and intent of our agreements.

We believe that the absence of a consensus vision for the future, a blatant attack on the pension promise and the very serious declining workplace environment (as management intensify the pressure on our members to drive budget savings) have to be addressed as matters of urgency.

The attached letter is the start point for moving our members’ interests and the above issues forward. It is absolutely imperative that Branches immediately commence local communications with our members in the workplace so that they understand what was discussed at the Policy Forum, the decisions taken, and how we are determined to move our policy forward.

Yours sincerely



Terry Pullinger
Deputy General Secretary (Postal)
