Percentages

Post by ass asin »

does anyone know the percentage breakdown of union members between the different parts of the business?

this information could prove invaluble with regards to rallying for a no vote. as reading the various posts on here it seems some mail centre staff are for it and most of us on delivery are against so dependant on the percentages we might have to go for a huge recruitment drive to make up any shortfall and the quicker the better.

I don't know the exact figures, but I believe its about two-thirds Delivery, and one-third Processing/Distribution.
So Deliveries will be decisive if you can get the vote out.

I'm sure they will change their minds if on delivery they have to park and loop.

the mail centre staff will get shafted too,
whenever RM start to close down some mail centres were do you think they will be deployed to,
they will be moved into delivery offices and told to get on with it like the rest of us
