Is the royal mail strike called off

As of my knowledge cutoff, the Royal Mail strike in the United Kingdom was indeed called off. Here's a brief update:

On October 4, 2022, the Communication Workers Union (CWU) announced that it had reached a deal with Royal Mail to end the strike, which had been ongoing since August 2022. The agreement was ratified by the union's members, and the strike was officially called off on October 6, 2022.

The deal includes improvements to pay, pensions, and working conditions for Royal Mail workers, as well as a commitment to invest in the company's operations and infrastructure. The agreement also includes a 5.5% pay increase for postal workers, with a further 3.5% increase in 2023.

It's worth noting that while the strike has been called off, the agreement is subject to ratification by Royal Mail's shareholders and the UK government. However, as of now, the strike is officially over, and postal services are expected to return to normal.
