 Syndicom, the Swiss postal workers union today handed to the Swiss parliament a petition with more than 100,000 signatures opposed to postal market liberalisation. The petition of Swiss citizens, was handed over today by the Syndicom General Secretly, Alain Carrupt, who said at the event that the Swiss parliament must listen to the voice of the people who want to retain a public universal postal service and that the only way to do this is with a regulated letter mail market that guarantees a universal service from local post office.



He aid the plans to liberalise the market would lead to more post office closures and a decrease in service for customers of the post office.





UNI Post & Logistics Global Union and other Swiss unions including the UNI affiliate, COMEDIA, were in Bern to support Syndicom as they handed in their petition to the Swiss Parliament.
