The Chairman of Isle of Man Post has welcomed a union call for more talks to avoid a strike over pay.
Alan Crowe says he'll respond soon to a letter from the Communication Workers Union, pledging fresh efforts to find a resolution without resorting to a strike.
Union members in the Island voted by a large majority in favour of a strike in the ongoing battle over pay and a meeting's planned for Sunday to decide the next step.
Mr Crowe has repeated the position of the Post Office - that it will not move on the public sector pay freeze - and he's urged the CWU to consider the damage a strike would do.
