When are royal mail on strike again
Royal Mail, the UK's postal service, has been in a long-standing dispute with the Communication Workers Union (CWU) over pay, jobs, and conditions. The union has been balloting its members on strike action, and there have been several strikes and walkouts in recent years.
As of now, there are no planned strikes by Royal Mail workers in the near future. However, the CWU has announced that it will be holding a national strike ballot in the coming weeks, which could potentially lead to further strike action.
The CWU has been pushing for better pay, job security, and improved working conditions for its members, who have been affected by the decline of the postal industry and the impact of COVID-19. Royal Mail has offered a 2% pay rise, which the CWU has rejected as inadequate.
It's worth noting that the CWU has a history of taking strike action, and it's possible that further strikes could be called in the future. However, at this point, there are no confirmed strike dates.
Here are some key dates to keep in mind:
- The CWU has announced that it will be holding a national strike ballot in the coming weeks, with the results expected in late summer or early autumn.
- If the ballot is successful, the CWU has said that it will give Royal Mail 28 days' notice before taking strike action.
- The next scheduled strike dates are currently unknown, but it's possible that further strikes could be called in the future.
