– Royal Mail’s trading update
– „Rightsizing” the business… a euphemism for sacking people?
– #RoyalMail targeting „operational” roles for elimination
– Is this a precursor to Royal Mail engaging more delivery contractors?
– Has Royal Mail exhausted the efficiency gains to be made by reducing headcount at headquarters?
– Reducing the influence of unions?
– Restructuring last mile operations
– Shifting the discussion from pay and conditions to whether or not workers will have a job this time next year
