Safety of workers is a priority for the Government. It is essential that postal workers are, and feel, safe in their working environment.

Postal operators should put appropriate measures in place to follow the latest public health guidance and legal obligations set out under health and safety legislation to protect their staff at work. Postal workers should continue to follow the advice of their employer and work with them to ensure sensible workplace adjustments are in place.
