Zoran Anđelković, newly appointed acting director of the Serbian Post, announced today that next week the company will fulfill its promise to employees and pay out the profit achieved during 2023. He added that efforts will be made to improve working conditions for all employees.

Anđelković emphasized that the branches of the Serbian Post are the most widespread and fastest in service, making them the best and most reliable partners for both citizens and companies.

„Posts, like churches and municipalities, are necessary in every place and every local community to serve citizens, especially in small communities. I believe we will improve cooperation with citizens and employees, of which there are around 15,000,“ he said.

Speaking about the increasing competition in the country, Anđelković noted that the Serbian Post is competitive, with a significant advantage being the number of branches it has throughout Serbia. He also highlighted the importance of service quality which he claims is reliable, safe, and fast.

„The Post has about 2,000 delivery vehicles, including 150 electric vehicles used for transport, and we will certainly strive to acquire more vehicles, especially electric ones, in the future,“ Anđelković said.

According to him, the strike and work stoppage by Serbian Post employees led to significant losses, including important clients, which is why he emphasized the importance of unions and dialogue with employees.

„Unions should fight for better working conditions. They are actually the main negotiators when collective agreements are signed, so all other conditions and income should be discussed accordingly. When I say conditions, I don’t mean just chairs, motorcycles, or cars they have, but also salaries. Therefore, unions are important in companies, but of course, we must also fight against abuses,“ Anđelković said.

He says that the Serbian Post has two to three significant unions in terms of the number of members, but there are also small unions that have a significant influence, which is why he will talk to everyone despite potential disagreements, as he emphasizes that everyone should have an interest in the successful operation of the company.
