LTB 11/25 – Postal Department Restructuring
No: 11/25
27th January 2025
Dear Colleagues,
Postal Department – Restructuring
Following on from the decisions carried at Annual Conference 2024 and a reduced Postal Executive (17 lay members to 14 lay members), the Postal Executive have discussed how we can better align the areas of responsibility amongst Postal Officers. Furthermore, how we review workload across the postal departments to function in a better way for the benefit of our members and to avoid duplication based on a reduced Postal Executive.
Branches, Representatives and members are therefore advised of the below organisational changes which will come into effect from Monday 3rd February 2025. It would be appreciated if colleagues could please ensure that any future correspondence is sent to the appropriate department as set out below.
We have jointly agreed to reallocate the following commitments and associated workload:
- Collections will move to the Outdoor Department.
- RMPFSL cleaners will move to the PTCS Department.
- Mail Centre engineers will move to the Processing, Distribution, Parcelforce, International and Eurest Department.
progressing the transfer of postal members, tagged and aligned to T&FS Branches,
into Postal Branches. This activity will be led by Andy Furey, Assistant Secretary and supported by Postal Executive members.
Any enquiries in relation to this LTB should be addressed to the DGS(P) department.
Yours sincerely,
Martin Walsh
Deputy General Secretary (Postal)
