Postal Crisis Continues With Hundreds Of Letters Remain Uncleared

The postal crisis continues with hundreds of letters remain uncleared at the Al-Safat Post Office for more than 10 days due to the lack of staff, and the absence of cars to take the mail to the distribution centers, reports Al-Rai daily.

The daily had pointed to the problem earlier but no actions have been taken to get rid of the confusion at the postal sector, An official source at the Ministry of Communications told the daily that after the expiry of the contract with the company related to postal services expired last October, and the ministry’s reliance on the sector employees which is already suffering because of lack of sufficient staff, the situation has resulted in mail accumulating at the main postal centers in Capital Governorate particularly the Al-Safat Post Office, despite a request from the assistant undersecretary for the postal sector to provide the center with employees and cars.

The source pointed out that the Al- Safat Post Office needs the services of 80 employees to handle distribution packages and letters compared to 10 employees who cannot handle everything
