Royal Mail workers have strike action planned across the UK for Wednesday August 31. Further industrial action is expected to take place on Thursday September 8 and Friday September 9.
The Communication Workers Union (CWU) has called for its Royal Mail members to strike for increased pay that “addresses the current cost of living”. Royal Mail workers who collect, sort, and deliver parcels, are expected to walk out causing “significant disruption”.
The CWU states: “The pay dispute is not complicated. Our members are striking for a pay rise that fully addresses the current cost of living. Our members need it, our members deserve it – the company can afford it.”
