The same could be said for RM. They have death figures for postal workers in the ONS spreadsheet.

From what I can make out our death rate is bad just not as bad as the very worst affected occupations mentioned, hence why we didn’t make the headlines. We should be pushing social distancing further not rolling it back.

We’re lucky that we can build social distancing into our company fairly easily, but because of the management “can’t do”/postie “won’t do” culture we will be further to 1% of our employees dying than other occupations by the time this pandemic is over.

Thought it was a joke, but yes today our DOM says we are going to be looking at getting back to van sharing because we are not clearing the mail often enough and too many parcels being left. No s$it sherlock :hmmmm
