After months of wrangling, a pay dispute between the Isle of Man Post Office and its staff has been resolved.
The Communications Workers Union has settled for a 3.5 per cent increase in basic pay.
The agreement is effective from April 1 this year, and there will be a reduction in the overall workforce through natural wastage.
CWU assistant secretary Terry Pullinger, who is at the Labour Party Conference in Liverpool, says the discussions were far from easy:
No public board meeting for Manx Care due to General Election
But health body 'committed to openness and transparency'
Chauffeur needed to provide 'professional and discreet service' for VIPs
Opportunity to work at 'heart of Island’s constitutional and ceremonial life’
Fire officer praises 'quick-thinking' staff after blaze at fire station
Investigations continuing after incident which destroyed fire engine
Chief Minister: 'AG not out to silence debate'
