Post Office refutes claims

Tue, 11 Dec 2018

Isle of Man Post Office says it strongly refutes claims from the Communication Workers Union (CWU) that it has rejected the opportunity to have ‘meaningful’ talks.

Yesterday - the CWU said the Post Office had rejected offer of talks ahead industrial action later this week.
 
The Post Office has since said it has agreed to a daylong of intense negotiation talks to take place tomorrow.

Julie Edge MHK, Chairman of IOMPO said: “We wish to avoid this week’s planned strike action and the disruption this will have on our valued customers, especially at our busiest time of the year. We are optimistic that by the end of the day on Wednesday, we will have a way forward. We are disappointed that the CWU has claimed we have rejected the offer of talks when they are already ongoing. It is completely untrue.”

Tynwald Members will fully consider the IOM Post Office's report later this morning.
