The Isle of Man Post Office is working out how best to cope with the one day strike, called in the UK for next Friday (June29th).
The Unions there are claiming the management is misleading the public over the reasons for the strike. They say claims that a pay rise of 27% was demanded was never asked for and their union CWU claims they are not opposed to modernisation in any shape or form.
They claim Royal Mail are refusing to negotiate.
In the Isle of Man, postal workers are under a seperate Manx agreement and wont be joining in the action.
Chairman Pam Crowe MLC will be appearing on our Mandate programme on Monday morning to describe what action the Manx team are taking to lessen any problems in deliveries.
