Royal mail ballot result

You're referring to the Royal Mail's ballot result!

In 2020, Royal Mail, the UK's postal service, held a ballot among its employees to decide whether to accept a proposed pension scheme or reject it. The ballot was a result of a long-standing dispute between Royal Mail and the Communication Workers Union (CWU) over the company's pension scheme.

Here are the results of the ballot:

Result: 97.1% of Royal Mail employees who voted rejected the proposed pension scheme.

Turnout: 76.8% of eligible employees participated in the ballot.

The rejection of the proposed pension scheme was a significant blow to Royal Mail's management, as it meant that the company would have to continue negotiating with the CWU to find a solution that satisfied both parties. The dispute ultimately led to a series of strikes and industrial action by Royal Mail workers in 2020 and 2021.

It's worth noting that the Royal Mail's pension scheme has been a contentious issue for many years, with concerns over the scheme's sustainability and the impact of changes on employees' retirement benefits. The dispute has had significant implications for the company, its employees, and the wider postal industry.
