Royal Mail to axe up to 10,000 jobs as losses rise
[Royal Mail has announced plans to cut 10,000 jobs
by next August, blaming ongoing strike action
and rising losses at the business.
The postal company said it will begin notifying
workers of its plan, which includes up
to 6,000 redundancies.
Apart from the redundancies, the firm will
cut roles through natural attrition,
for example by not replacing workers who leave.
Royal Mail also said it expects its full-year
losses to hit £350m.
It said this included "the direct impact
of eight days of industrial action" as
well as lower volumes of parcels being posted.
But the firm warned that losses could
reach as much as £450m
"if customers move volume away
for longer periods" following strike action.]
[Mr Thompson told the BBC that nearly 20 years ago,
Royal Mail delivered 20 billion letters a year.
Today, it is eight billion.
"We are now a parcels business that
also delivers letters," he said]
