If they care about their workers, and their jobs, then the fiscal health of the parent organisation is important. They are doing real damage to the Royal Mail with Amazon and other retailers deciding to pursue other avenues for delivery. While some will come back and Amazon will recommence some deliveries with them it they will have permanently lost some custom.
As important as the "last-mile" deliveries are I doubt there is enough profit, if any, in them. It's the internet shopping deliveries which will be one of the biggest sources of revenue and the workers are royally screwing that line of the business into the ground. It is incidentlly one of the sectors the Royal Mail bosses want to address with their modernisations.
