Dear Colleague

RMG Guidance Social Distancing – Parcel Sorting Machine (PSM)

Branches and representatives will be aware that LTB 155/20 provided Royal Mail guidance in relation to changes to working practices to accommodate social distancing in the Mail Centre environment.

In addition to the above further clarification has been developed by Royal Mail in regard to social distancing on the Parcel Sorting Machine (PSM). A copy of the guidance document (Annex A) and slides (Annex B) that have been received by the department are attached for information. Colleagues should note that the attached relate to operational activities and do not cover Engineering processes or tasks.

For absolute clarity the attached documentation has been produced by the business. The documents do however seek to address some of the issues that have been raised by the department, following representations from the field in respect of how social distancing can be applied and maintained on the PSM.

The department will continue to monitor the processes and will raise with the business any issues that are identified to clarify or revise, in order to improve where necessary.

Any enquiries in relation to this LTB should be addressed to Davie Robertson, Assistant Secretary, email: dwyatt@cwu.org quoting reference 014.14

Yours sincerely



Davie Robertson

Assistant Secretary
