In an act of goodwill or in the safety interests of its colleagues do you think royal mail will give us Easter Saturday off.

You'd have to take that up with OFCOM, RM doesn't have any say over whether the Easter Saturday is a service day or not

Unprecedented times. Stay home protect nhs save lives.
Do you think OFCOM might have heard that message & tell RM they have to give us it off

I remember we used to have to work good Friday and just think if they gave us Easter Saturday off how it would affect Rico’s bonus :dance

I wonder what would happen if stricter rules were put in place by the government and they said RM has to stop and shut down too, OR maybe RM will take that decision for themselves.

Is it RM that would cover our wages during this time or the furlough scheme?

If it's RM that covers the wage bill, how many months could they afford to pay out for before going bust?

It would make sense to move the next bank holiday back to the Mon.

I am beginning to think this obsession a lot of you have with Rico is homoerotic.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
