Workplace
Workplace is an easy-to-use, mobile-first communication tool that will connect our entire company, from the CEO to the site.
It is a dedicated and secure space for Royal Mail colleagues to connect, communicate, collaborate and engage, and is completely separate from personal Facebook.

Log in for the first time:
- Frontline users should log-in using the username (@royalmail.co.uk) and password, sent to them in their payslip, and follow the step by step instructions below or here as a poster to print out.
- IT connected users with an @royalmail.com email address, should log in using their email address (@royalmail.com) as the username and their windows password (the one they use to log-in to a Royal Mail PC).
