OVER 115 postal workers and members of the Communication Workers Union at the Royal Mail depot in Friarn Street Bridgwater are set to strike this coming Saturday (29 June 2013). The walk out is part of an ongoing dispute about job cuts and ongoing allegations of bullying from managers. An £800 lump sum payment to workers at the site is also still outstanding for previous changes that have been made to working practices.
CWU Bristol Area Official David Wilshire said 'Workers at the depot believe Royal Mail has made no serious attempts to resolve the issues at the heart of this dispute and this is why strike action will go ahead'.
There will be a large picket line on the day and photo and interview opportunities are available from 0700-0900 hours.
