"It's our view that the money now on offer marks a considerable step forward – several steps forward – from what was initially an unacceptable position on the part of the employer," said CWU acting deputy general secretary Andy Furey. The CWU said the deal, which has been endorsed by its postal executive, would provide lump sum payments for all workers ranging between 1,925 pounds and 3,000 pounds, as well as a wide array of additional benefits.

Beyond possessing an enhanced hierarchy for the information it publishes, it is also intended to extend its audience and foremost to extend its objectives to the fight against misinformation that often spreads after significant earthquakes, and to the utilization of the teachable moments opened by widely felt non damaging earthquakes to contribute to enhanced earthquake risk awareness and preparedness.
