Are Royal Mail willing to sacrifice workers health & safety?

That is the question CWU should bluntly ask them and if they say no, then provide more than adequate, safe and morally correct working conditions / procedures.

If the answer is yes or don't know, out we walk.

Not one of us should be feeling unsafe, stressed or panicked over this.

A total closure of 3 weeks may alleviate a lot of concerns.

In 3 weeks COVID-19 is expected to reach it's peak in the UK

"Are Royal Mail willing to sacrifice workers health & safety?"

I think they already have. Too long to bring in social distancing and remove van shares. NO paper towels in my office for the year, let alone last week, and regularly NO soap. In fact our office hasn't had a regular cleaner since the DOM peed the last one off many months ago.

Yes.

We are literally risking our lives for the sake of pizza leaflets and catalogues.

Enough is enough. Close down, or at least reduce to a bare bones service.
