Postal workers around Australia are taking part in industrial action against Australia Post from today in the hope of getting a new wage deal.
Postal workers around Australia say they will deliver unstamped mail from today until Christmas Eve.
New South Wales union secretary Jim Metcher says workers are fed up and have waited three years for a deal, and are therefore taking action.
“Postal workers have waited long enough for a new wage deal and they want one now,” he said.
Metcher said that the strike should not disrupt service, but he cannot guarantee every piece of unstamped mail will reach its destination.
