AFAIK Royal Mail do not have insurance they have a bond which is basically a pile of money that they pay out from when accidents happen (All perfectly legal BTW). Contact HR (No on back of pay chits) and they should be able to advise you what to put down.

There are enough 'rumours' lacking fact as it is. Why add to it.

There is an insurance certificate on a wall at my DO and it's in date,it's a yearly thing,not sure but it may be law to have to have it on shown.
Whether that is for the vans and that is another thing.

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.

The vehicles are covered by a Bond, but RM also have liability insurance (for AODs, etc.), which is provided by an insurance company.

Re: Need details on Rm insurance, for injury claim
royal mail have a bond which they pay into lloyds of london.
any motor claim etc gets taken out of this bond for which royal mail top up each year.
its the only way to do fleet insurance on such a scale
this bond at last count was 50 million quid
royal mail have a public liability insurance
the cover note needs to be on display in your office so if not, demand to see it
ITS A LEGAL REQUIREMENT TO BE ON FULL DISPLAY
