Royal Mail to 'shut down' across Scotland for four days of strike action

Royal Mail customers have been warned to expect delays to their online orders, due to strike action taking place across four days at the end of August.

The Communication Workers Union (CWU) says services will be disrupted as a result of the industrial action, set to take place on August 26 and 31 as well as September 8 and 9 in a dispute over pay.

Royal Mail has confirmed that they have offered workers a 5.5 per cent pay rise, but the union is disputing that the rise is reflective of a 2 per cent pay increase, a further 1.5 per cent in exchange for a change in terms and conditions as well as a £500 bonus.
