LTB 007/26 – Post Office: Pay Claim – 1st April 2026
No. 007/26
6th January 2026
Dear Colleague
Post Office: Pay Claim – 1st April 2026
Branches are advised that the Postal Executive has endorsed a pay claim for our Post Office members working in Admin and Supply Chain. The pay review date is 1st April 2026. We have agreed with Post Office to enter into early negotiations with the aim of concluding an agreement in advance of April.
Our pay claim is seeking:
A one-year no strings Pay Agreement
An above-inflation pay increase for all members
An hour off the working week (35 hours reducing to 34 hours)
Reducing and simplifying the lower tiers of the pension scheme employer contributions, to continue the theme and progress made in last year’s Pay Agreement
Reducing the length of time on pay scales for Admin grades so that the maximum can be attained more quickly (currently there are five pay points, taking four years to get to the maximum)
An extra day’s annual leave for all members irrespective of current entitlements, whilst reducing the amount of time to be served before attaining the maximum.
It remains to be seen whether good progress can be made in a relatively short period of time, bearing in mind the wide-ranging nature of our pay claim.
Further developments will be reported.
Yours sincerely,
Andy Furey
Assistant Secretary

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
