Royal Mail applies special International Women's Day 2023 #EmbraceEquity postmark

 March 08, 2023

Across the United Kingdom, Royal Mail is marking International Women's Day with a special #IWD2023 #EmbraceEquity postmark to raise awareness and celebrate the day.

Royal Mail is something special – a well-loved brand people can rightly be proud of.

Royal Mail has the assets, the infrastructure and the scale that others don’t, yet they are a big part of the communities they operate in, making billions of precious deliveries each year.

Their people are at the heart of their business and are integral to helping them to utilise the latest technology and business approaches to optimise, automate and digitise their operations.

Playing a significant role

Royal Mail has been operating across Britain for over 500 years.

Six days a week, Royal Mail delivers mail to over 30 million addresses in the UK.

It takes the hard work of over 150,000 employees to keep things running smoothly.

Diversity, equity and inclusion are key to Royal Mail
