英郵局員工支持大罷工 郵件寄送恐癱瘓 - 留學

Post strike dates announced

It has been confirmed postal workers will stage two nationwide strikes next
week in a bitter row over pay, jobs and working conditions.

About 42,000 mail centre staff and drivers will walk out on October 22 for 24
hours, followed by another 24-hour stoppage on Friday 23 by 78,000 delivery
and collection staff.

The industrial action is set to cripple mail deliveries and could cost the UK
economy hundreds of millions of pounds.

The Communication Workers Union says it has made a "genuine offer" to avert a
national strike.

Union bosses accuse the Royal Mail of rejecting it without proper
consideration.
