Introduction and Key Objectives. Royal Mail and the CWU recognise that as the Mail market continues to evolve we are faced with significant challenges and opportunities. The mail market is changing, affecting the nature of the mail mix/traffic streams and their volumes, weight and size. New technology, automation and customer driven change are also collectively signalling the need for constructive change in the delivery operation if Royal Mail is to remain a sustainable and profitable company. Working together to transform the delivery operation at the same time as improving efficiency to deal with competition presents a key challenge for everyone. These same changes in the mail market are also creating commercial growth opportunities in packet volumes (fulfilment) through the growth in on-line shopping, advertising mail, unaddressed mail including D2D and international mail (as well as some more specialist services). Securing this growth is vital to the success of the business and providing a secure future for everyone working in it. Changes in the delivery operation will also be supported by major investment in new equipment and technology, providing an indication of the businesses ambition to succeed in a competitive market, and invest in its workforce. It is jointly accepted that the best way to deliver this change effectively is with the support of the workforce. Delivering this change requires a radical transformation in delivery, which will include improving safety performance significantly through better equipment, workplace design and a culture of safety embedded in working practices. This will be underpinned by fair and transparent planning systems, processes and revision tools, ensuring that everyone has a productive workload that is safe, fair, and manageable, supported by improved tools for the job. It means creating a fresh role for Delivery employees through the introduction of flexible working practices, improved attendance patterns (including fewer Saturdays), a better work-life balance, and by continuing to provide reasonable levels of take home pay. Royal Mail and CWU are both fully committed to this transformation, and welcome the investment in employees, new technology and delivery equipment that will help modernise the role for people in delivery, motivating and equipping them to meet the challenges of the market head on. Creating an environment where all employees are well trained and supported, feel valued and motivated and are better equipped to carry out their ro...
