Isle of Man Post Office is pleased talks with the Communication Workers Union (CWU) today have averted strike action planned for Tuesday (April 12). Mike Kelly, Chief Executive of Isle of Man Post Office, said: “I am very pleased we have been able to agree a framework with the CWU which will help us to explore ways to resolve the current dispute. We have worked hard with the CWU to arrive at this position. As a result, the CWU will be technically validating their ballot at another time and in a way which will not impact on services to the public and business customers. Both parties recognise that future talks will still have to overcome some difficult challenges however, we are confident both parties are now committed to finding a solution. We would like to thank the industrial relations office for their valued assistance in the talks.” -Ends-
