No. Postal services and delivery staff are still included.

Thanks for the reply we were told by Dom this morning which I thought was odd given the ongoing situation.

Key public services

Postal workers, those required to run the justice system, religious staff, and those responsible for managing the deceased, and journalists providing public service broadcasting.

Your DOM is talking out of their shitbox. What aspect of posties being key workers could impact on their bonus? Posties kids still allowed to go to school so posties have to cut off to collect them so he can't expect to alter attendance times possibly?
I would expect the rep to do something about the doms flagrant oral ordure.

I was stopped by cops on the way into the office this morning, he asked me why I was driving when there is a lockdown. I explained I work for Royal Mail and have been deemed a key worker. I produced my letter that the boss give us all if this scenario arises. Cop said that’s just a photocopy, anyone could have this in their car, I then had to show my license and Royal Mail I D . As he waved me on he said that’s news to me about posties being key Workers :shock:

Well that copper should read what the Muppets in charge have said! Everyone is still working if their place of work is still open not just key workers. Work from home unless you can't! That's why building sites are open, road works are ongoing and all the business on the Industrial site near us are still open
