Royal Mail workers have announced two 48-hour strikes to coincide with the busiest online shopping days, Black Friday and Cyber Monday
Further action by postal workers has been hinted at. The CWU said its postal executive will meet on Thursday to discuss new action in the build-up to Christmas.
Also included in the pay deal are mail centre closures, changes to Sunday working and"widespread changes over introducing Uber-style owner-drivers", the union added."But 115,000 of our members will not just accept this war on their livelihoods and their industry," CWU general secretary Dave Ward said.
The announcement was blamed on industrial action taken by Royal Mail workers, delays in improving productivity and falling parcel volumes. "The CWU have been in talks with us at Acas and claim they are open to change, but they now need to show it.
