(Sharecast News) - Postal workers announced that they would strike on 16-17 February due to "unagreed changes" to the structure of work by Royal Mail at offices across the country.
Communication Workers Union General Secretary, Dave Ward, said: "This action is down to the conduct of Royal Mail management, who have displayed a complete lack of integrity.
"Our members will not just sit back and watch as their working lives are destroyed by a company leadership hell-bent on ripping up historic arrangements that protect their rights and give them a voice through their union.
"It is postal workers who keep this company going and this country connected - it's time management recognise this, drop the nasty games and begin taking negotiations seriously, so that this dispute can be ended for good."
The CWU's 115,000 would strike between 12.30pm 16 February and 12.30pm on the following day.
