Dear Colleague
BUSINESS RECOVERY TRANSFORMATION AND GROWTH (BRT&G) AGREEMENT – ROYAL MAIL FLEET SERVICES – UPDATE
Meetings have taken place to secure an agreement for our Fleet members as part of the Business Recovery, Transformation and Growth Agreement. Following a pause due to annual leave, the most recent meeting took place on 9th November 2023.
The negotiations are progressing well and both parties are committed to reaching an agreement, which will be acceptable to our members in Fleet.
The negotiations are complex and cover many topics including: –
Pay
Rebuilding of relationships
Maximising work for Royal Mail Fleet and minimising external contracts
The transition to electric vehicles
Ensuring inventive duty patterns
We understand there may be frustrations the negotiations have not concluded, however, the negotiations are progressing well and we have further meetings in the diary to conclude the negotiations.
It is also critical we reach the right agreement, which will ensure the future of Fleet going forward.
Once the negotiations are complete, our Fleet members will have the opportunity to vote on the agreement.
Attached to this LTB is a joint commitment where both parties are committed to getting an agreement, which will be supported by our members in Fleet.
We are looking to conclude the agreement as soon as possible and further developments will be reported.
Any enquiries to this LTB please contact: The PTCS Department reference 220, email address: khay@cwu.org.
Your sincerely,
Carl Maden Assistant Secretary
