On 7 February, the Final conference of the PSE project "Developing a quality postal service in the digital age" took place with more than 60 participants.

The project “Developing a quality postal service in the digital age - Listening sessions: selection of national good practices” aims at continuing the close monitoring of the postal sector evolution in the framework fo the Social Observatory. It was conducted in 2013 by the Postal Sector Evolution working group of the Committee with 6 listening sessions in 2013 and a final conference.

The gathering focused first on the main findings of the project's six listening sessions illustrated by national testimonies before turning to a prospective session with presentations by an external expert and IPC followed by a round-table with high-level representatives from PostEurop, UNI and the Commission.

 The focus was on main challenges in the postal sector today:

• Work organization in retail, in parcels and in sorting 

• Key issues in the sector today

• Innovative utilization of networks and universal service

•Social regulation

The listening sessions involving selected countries enable an effective mutual learning process and an interactive debate through the exchange of detailed information on each national practice.
