Can you provide links to the agreements that back up your statements.
Thanks in advance.

Do I have to wear a face covering?

Following the emergence of the Omicron Covid-19 variant in the UK, from 30th November 2021 it is
mandatory to wear a face covering in all indoor Royal Mail Group settings (including offices,
customer service points, shared vans and workplace restaurants e.g. only remove face coverings
when eating/drinking). Face coverings have been mandatory across Scotland, Northern Ireland and
Wales for some time.

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.

We still have some in our office not getting vaccinated, I’d say that’s more important than a piece of cloth on your face .
Personal choice, in 10+ years time there'll be of lot of people complaining about the effects of that jab. Don't believe everything Boris& Co tell you.
Hear,hear grchpo.... :Applause The fundamental right to choose should be upheld everywhere. It should be clear to all that there is no longer a 'pandemic' (if there was ever one at all). The 'emergency' powers that the government are utilising should be quashed and The Coronavirus Act abolished.

Ex ITV Boss Mark Sharman has stated that the government has spent over £500,000,000 on 'advertising' for c19.Slick marketing, most have fallen for it.

I thought all those w*****s that believe in conspiracy theories and promoting anti vaccination crap were supposed to f**k off to other websites and leave us alone?
You are all w*****s.

I presume that you didn’t look into details of legal cases building up in courts across the world where evidence of data manipulation is being presented as well as strong evidence of malfeasance by public officials. Safe and effective treatments have been denied to patients therefore creating a need for emergency powers allowing administration of experimental gene therapies with unknown long term consequences. Please, for your own sake and wellbeing of your family and friends: listen to whistleblowers, listen what private health insurers say about statistics of covid and covid jabs, look onto responses for Freedom of Information requests detailing the statistics and giving interpretations which differ to mainstream media narrative, speak to lawyers and read in detail their accusations, ask nhs staff why so many refuse the jab, read the contract between Pfizer and particular governments, check the historical safety data of big vaccine producers and fines they had to pay, listen to creators of mrna jabs and their warnings, Pfizer whistleblowers and check Yellow Cards system for logged into system adverse reactions which are not investigated by MHRA because of their budget limits of £600 per person (including costly postmortem)-therefore creating situation that in practice there is no safety net for those experimental jabs in UK..
I am beginning to believe that those ‘conspiracy theorists’ are actually ‘criminal investigators’ doing the jobs of those journalists who should be digging into data/documents/history of those pushing us into accepting products which CDC in America actually accepts that potentially destroys your natural immunity probably indefinitely..

Unfortunately,most Van shares I’ve seen on the roads don’t bother.
Admittedly ,it’s an inconvenience but It’s not hard to wear one really is it?

I really blame the management for the lack of emphasis throughout the Pandemic.
We all want to forget about Covid but we have to just accept that it’s not going to go away and take preventive measures to help stop contagion.

Fortunately ,the Omicron variant seems a milder Covid mutant but don’t forget Delta is still around and what will the next mutation be like?

Ventilation,Mask and Daily Lateral Flow test are the way forward in any workplace.

Also,Why RM introduced a doorstep collection service during a Pandemic is beyond me!

Does it matter that much? Most selfish lot in my office haven't worn them anyway, or showed badge bought from ebay, or just go off with stress if pulled so bosses don't bother anymore

Wrong ,FFP3 mask do work if worn correctly ,other mask surgical type ,cloth etc also do offer some protection.
