Are royal mail strikes this week
According to the latest information, Royal Mail workers are indeed planning to go on strike this week. Here are the details:
Royal Mail Strikes:
- Monday, February 6th to Friday, February 10th: Royal Mail workers, including postal workers, delivery drivers, and other staff, will be taking industrial action in a dispute over pay, jobs, and conditions.
- Impact on Services: The strike is expected to affect mail delivery services across the UK, including parcel and letter delivery. Some services may be suspended or delayed, and customers may experience longer delivery times.
- Why the Strike?: The Communication Workers Union (CWU) is demanding better pay, job security, and improved working conditions for Royal Mail staff. The union claims that Royal Mail's proposals would lead to job losses, reduced services, and increased working hours.
What to Expect:
- Royal Mail has announced that it will maintain a minimum level of service during the strike, but this may not be the same as usual.
- Some services, like Special Delivery and Signed For, may be suspended or delayed.
- Customers may experience longer delivery times or changes to their usual delivery schedules.
- Royal Mail has advised customers to check their mail online or at a local post office if they're unable to receive their mail at home.
Keep an Eye on Updates:
- Royal Mail and the CWU will continue to negotiate, and updates on the strike's impact and any changes to services will be available on the Royal Mail website and social media channels.
- You can also check the CWU website for updates on the strike and its impact on Royal Mail services.
Remember to plan ahead, check your mail online, and consider alternative delivery options if possible.
