Denmark Postal Service to stop providing letters star-news.press/wp

Denmark State Postal Service, postnord, all letter deliveries should be terminated at the end of 2025. year, citing 90% of the relevance in letters from the beginning of the century.

The decision is made by the end of the 400 years of the company’s letter. Denmark 1,500 mailboxes will begin to disappear from the beginning of June.

The Transport Minister Thomas Danielsen sought to convince Dance, saying letters can still be sent and received throughout the country. One company said it was ready to download deliveries.

Postal services across Europe occur with the fall of the currencies for the letter. Germany Deutsche Post said on Thursday, 8,000 jobs were tested, in what is called “socially responsibility.”

Deutsche post has 187,000 employees, and staff said they were afraid to come up with more reductions.

Denmark had a universal postal service 400 years until the end of 2023. years, but as digital mail services were taken, the use of letters dropped dramatically.

Public services send communications through a digital post application or other platforms and postnore Denmark says that in the letter market is no longer profitable.

The numbers of the letters fell from the beginning of the century from 1.4 billion to 110 million last year.

The decision will affect the most older people. Although 95% of DANCE uses digital mail, 271,000 people are still relied on physical mail.

Danish MP Pelle Dragsted blamed privatization for a move and regretted that a move in a disadvantage of the part is in remote areas.

Postnord said that about 1,500 of his workers would lose their jobs, from the workforce of 4,600.

The company said to transfer the focus on package delivery and that these years or in 2024 were purchased by all postmarks might return to a limited period 2026. years.

The Chief CEO of Kim Pedersen said that Dance became more digital, and the fall of the letters of letters became so spoken that it fell by as much as 30% last year.

Postnord also operates in Sweden. It is 40% of Denmark and 60% of Swedish ownership.
