Are royal mail staff getting stamps this year
A question that gets to the heart of postal worker perks!
According to various sources, including the Communication Workers Union (CWU) and Royal Mail's own website, the answer is yes, Royal Mail staff are still entitled to receive a certain number of free stamps each year.
As part of their employment package, Royal Mail staff are entitled to a "Stamp Allowance" which allows them to receive a certain number of free stamps each year. The exact number of stamps varies depending on the staff member's role and grade within the company.
For example, according to the CWU, Royal Mail postal workers are entitled to receive:
- 1,000 free stamps per year for postal workers in grades 1-3
- 2,000 free stamps per year for postal workers in grades 4-6
- 3,000 free stamps per year for postal workers in grades 7-9
These stamps can be used for personal use, such as sending letters or parcels to friends and family, or they can be used to purchase other postal services, such as special delivery or recorded delivery.
It's worth noting that these stamp allowances are subject to change, and Royal Mail may adjust the number of free stamps available to staff from time to time. However, as of my knowledge cutoff, Royal Mail staff are still entitled to receive a certain number of free stamps each year.
