Royal Mail – Employed Courier Guide
Royal Mail offers employed positions rather than self-employed contracts, making it unique among major UK parcel networks. Postal workers (posties) and van drivers receive PAYE pay, a pension, holiday pay, and sick pay — at the cost of schedule flexibility.
Pay & Roles
Royal Mail pay and benefits vary by role, location and current vacancy terms; check the current official listing or contract.
Employment vs Self-Employment
Employment status, hours, outside-work restrictions and rights depend on the current role and contract. Check the official vacancy and written terms.
