A Communication Workers Union press release announcing the strike vote is framed at preventing any strike from taking place, emphasising its partnership with management.
The sackings at Prenton are a direct outcome of the national agreement between the Communication Workers’ Union and Royal Mail which includes the use of PDA data for performance management.
The Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Committee has recommended that Ofcom undertake an enforcement investigation into Royal Mail’s delivery of the USO and to report to the Committee by the end of 2023.
The CWU has cancelled the strike planned for next week following a legal challenge from Royal Mail – however, its re-ballot on future industrial action continues.
