Eesti Post came to terms with newspapers on the delivery price

Negotiations between Eesti Post and Estonian Newspaper Association (EALL) came to an end when they reached an agreement on the new delivery price for newspapers. From the following year, the price of the delivery service will increase by 4.3 percent.

„First and foremost, the increase of prices for the delivery of periodicals means higher wages for our mailmen and first-level employees, “commented Aavo Kärmas, chairman of the board of Eesti Post Ltd.
On his opinion it is nice of publishers to understand the need for the rise in salary for mailmen. "All in all, we share the same interest with the publishers. Successful publications and big circulation means more work and outcome for our carriers," Kärmas added.

According to the agreement, the delivery price of periodicals will rise by 4.3 percent starting from the new year. Personnel costs form 70 percent from the costs connected to the delivery of periodicals, and there will be a 6 percent increase in personnel cost in the oncoming year.
