Do The UK Postal Strikes Effect Parcel Forces Also?


Question:
Just curious as Parcelforce are part of Royal Mail do the postal strikes effect them aswell?

Answers:
From UK and the town where I live it did'nt stop the parcel delivery as it was only for one day which was on a Thursday.
I believe parcel force have already negotiated a pay deal so would say no it doesn't affect them. Also, dont forget not every postman is on strike, some managers will still cover rounds and also, special next day deliverys usually are ok over strike, but this isn't 100% guaranteed. Always best to check with the delivery office!
no parcel force are not affected by this strike. they have already negotiated a settlement and so have no grounds to take strike action.
also a great many parcel force delivery drivers these days are in effect private businesses sub-contracted to parcel force. ( due to an incentive run by parcel force a few years ago to cut costs).
royal mails engineering arm ( romec) is also now effectively run as a separate company and its employees are also unaffected by the strike.
Yes, if the the staff are in the Communications Workers' Union.
