The strike action could cause problems during the busiest period of the year for online Christmas shoppers
in the weeks leading up to Christmas, which could interrupt the busiest period of the year for online Christmas shoppers. Last week, the Communication Workers Union said the postal workers are set to go on strike on December 23 and Christmas Eve, meaning last-minute Christmas presents won’t be delivered on time.
“Royal Mail has well-developed contingency plans, but we cannot fully replace the daily efforts of our frontline workforce. We’ll be doing what we can to keep services running, but we are sorry this planned strike action is likely to cause you some disruption.” Meanwhile, a spokesperson for the CWU said: “The CWU wants a negotiated settlement with Royal Mail Group and will continue to engage the company to that end.
