Royal Mail TV Comms just not up to scratch parody
We’ve seen five episodes of Royal Mail TV in the last few weeks aimed at convincing you to vote no.
We’ve had actors, actresses, managers and even the CEO on camera.
To save you we’ve summed their efforts up in 2 minutes

Last chance to vote
Last chance to vote – As we enter the final days of voting it’s time for one final push. We would ask branches to concentrate on getting into bigger offices – Mail Centre’s, Hubs, MPUs etc. As we know from previous ballots, thousands of papers will still not be returned so we need to keep going until the end. Branches / Area reps doing around the clock meetings at big centres could make a critical difference #WeRiseAgain
Average Pay on Leave (Holiday Pay Claims) Against Royal Mail Group Limited 8/10/19
Average Pay on Leave (Holiday Pay Claims) Against Royal Mail Group Limited
Further to LTB 575/19 circulated to Branches on 4th October 2019, the DGS(P) Department has been advised that from 1st October 2019 all new holiday pay Early Conciliation (EC) cases in England and Wales will automatically be issued with an ACAS certificate as no further conciliation will take place.
Branches covering England and/or Wales should also be aware that an ACAS certificate will now be issued for all current EC cases that are in progress and have yet to receive an offer. As a result Branches are likely to see an increase over the coming days in ACAS certificates and should be aware that these may be time critical in some cases.
In addition, Branches will also need to contact the appropriate ACAS Conciliator to highlight the cases where offers have already been accepted or a recalculation has been requested. This will ensure that such cases do not slip through the net and are brought to a conclusion.
Once again, thank you for your ongoing efforts and further updates will be provided in due course.
Any enquiries in relation to the content of this LTB should be addressed to the DGS(P) Department.
Yours sincerely,
Terry Pullinger
Deputy General Secretary (Postal)
