An interesting read, OFCOM seemingly being told to do their job properly or they'll be replaced! Whilst RM are trying to put a positive spin on the report on Workplace I'm not sure it makes good reading for RM, particularly when it suggests OFCOM should invest whether they are prioritising parcels over letters.

This made me laugh:

Nevertheless, Alistair Cochrane acknowledged the risk that the contingency procedures could be applied “miscellaneously”, and as a result Royal Mail carries out around 100 “unannounced self-audits” every week to “make sure that we do not have an endemic problem”.Royal Mail appears to be more rigorous in policing itself than its statutory regulator.

How many DO's are there? About 1400?

So each office gets an audit every 4 months or so?

Or do they class an 'unannounced audit' as a manager popping out of their office, having a look around and going:

'Looks good to me'?
