There will be a reduction in staff at Swiss Post this year. Up to 116 employees can lose their jobs. The management of the logistics services area is affected. It is the largest department of Swiss Post with approximately 21,000 employees.
A consultation process is currently ongoing. Therefore, the post office cannot yet say with certainty how many jobs are actually involved. “We are considering all options to keep layoffs as low as possible,” a spokesperson said when asked by Blick. “We’ll be reporting internally how many people are affected soon.”
Swiss Post also emphasizes that no postal worker or employee in the sorting centers was affected by the dismantling. He is also trying to alleviate as much as possible through retirement and by reducing workloads.
Posting should become more efficient
The reason for the layoffs is the Swiss Post’s strategy from 2021 to 2024. Efficiency is an important pillar. This has been deliberately neglected until now due to Corona. Due to the crisis, short-term adjustments were repeatedly necessary.
The field of logistics services was also particularly affected by the geopolitical situation, the energy crisis and inflation.
Swiss Post negotiated social plans for layoffs with Syndicom union and Transfair staff association.
