Royal Mail said posties are protected from the proposed cuts
Royal Mail has announced plans to cut 2,500 head office and other supporting roles by the end of 2027 as it battles competition and falling demand for letter deliveries.
The cuts at the postal service will represent about 2% of the 131,000-strong workforce.
However, frontline postal workers - posties and drivers - are not part of the proposed restructuring.
Royal Mail said the workforce reduction, designed to improve efficiency, would be achieved through voluntary redundancies and people choosing to leave the company.
