 NEWS FROM THE STANDARD
Postal Workers Still Disgruntled
Oct 27 1999 12:00 AM PDT

 PROFILE
A state-owned public company, Consignia's (formerly The Post Office) mandate is to deliver the mail -- post haste. Its Royal Mail unit delivers 80 million letters and other items daily. Its other units are Parcelforce Worldwide (express package delivery) and Post Office Counters (which operates about 18,500 post offices in the UK). Competition has been expanding at home, prompting Consignia to seek international opportunities. It owns parcel and express delivery subsidiaries in France, Germany, the US, and other countries; it has agreed to form a venture with TNT Post Group and Singapore Post for international mail delivery.
