They are pleased to take on free labour over their busiest period so they don't have to pay their own staff overtime money, they're saying.
it almost comes across that they are teasing us with the admission that they use them over busy periods. probably because that's how they were sold the idea to get them to participate in the scam. so they think it's ok to do.
actually, they are infact saying that they use it to get free labour so they don't have to pay a wage or overtime. they just don't realise how disgusting it is actually admit it.
Royal Mail will probably say the same around Xmas time.
