Posties have gone on strike at the Royal Mail sorting office in Peterborough today (Thursday).

A number of staff at the sorting office in Papyrus Road, Peterborough this morning.

A picket line has been set up outside the site.

A spokesman for the Royal Mail said: “Royal Mail is disappointed at the industrial action that is taking place at our Peterborough Delivery office. We have robust contingency measures in place and will make every effort to deliver as much mail as possible to our customers.

“We also expect the enquiry office to be open as usual for customers to collect any mail for which we have left a “Something for You card”. Posting customers should use local post offices and we expect to collect from all post office branches and all post boxes in the area.

“We apologise to customers for any disruption to their mail service. Royal Mail is fully committed to resolving our colleagues’ concerns in co-operation with the Communication Workers Union (CWU).”

The Peterborough Telegraph has contacted the Communication Workers Union (CWU) for comment about the industrial action.

Bet its bullying from management

Unrealistic work load to get there bonus

Ips and sequence and manual times probly unrealistic like every office in the uk
Advancing the mail to lapse

Could write a massive list but will be shite every forum member all have heard before

Promised issues will get sorted bla bla to go back in from union

And then they need to go back in and work with the bullying management
Mediators then blame staff and management so they dont need to remove managers,
couldn't make this crap up

You forgot, manager gets moved to neighbouring office. Who then go on strike six months later for same issues.

He doesn't talk to half the staff now the atmosphere is shocking

Same in our office. ours is actually off at minute and the atmosphere has been so much better and work getting done with no issues. why cany it be like that all the time. just treat staff with respect.

This is all part of RM’s plan to get rid of the union. Any decent company would sack these incompetent managers...

The guys went out for a reason and they have stood up and told the managers enough is enough,we go back to work tomorrow and we go again,
