The Communication Workers Union has released a copy of the 2009 pay agreement between it and Isle of Man Post Office.

The CWU highlights a line under the section headed 'Continuing Aims', which says, "To promote the concept of everyone working for each other and for benefit of the business and its employees having a share in it's (sic) success."

In the accompanying email CWU assistant secretary Terry Pullinger echoes what he told Manx Radio on Monday, saying it "beggars belief" to hear Isle of Man Post Office management claim it has no knowledge of the agreement.

He adds, "These silly management games are not helping to resolve the current pay dispute.

"We hope that IMPO management will resolve their filing issues and return to talks with an offer of a deserved reward for postal workers for their efforts.

"Tough, responsible, meaningful and factual negotiations hold no fear for us and that is what we are seeking."
