In 2015, the number of postal network access points increased by 2.4% to a total of 13,460, according to data released Thursday by Anacom.
This growth 310 points, compared with 13,150 a year earlier, contrary to the trend of reduction recorded in recent years, and is justified by the increase in the number of post boxes of CTT group, following the postal density rules adopted by the sector regulator.
As the number of network access points increased, also postal density (771 inhabitants per access point), and postal coverage (14.6 access points per 100 square kilometers) followed the same upward trend last year.
on the contrary, the postal traffic continued to fall, having retreated 3.3% to around 847 million objects. However, the reduction is less than the annual average for the last four years (-5.6%).
CTT continues to lead the market, with a share of 94.6%.
of the total sent postal items, “78.5% were matches (-0.8 percentage points in 2014), 9.5% direct mail (+0.8 percentage points in 2014) and 7 4% editorial mail (-0.2 percentage points in 2014). the orders represented 4.6% of total traffic (+0.1 percentage points in 2014), “details the entity led by Fátima Barros.
Almost all objects were sent to the country (96.3%), only 3.7% went to other countries.
in terms of revenue, last year reached about 654 million euros, down 6.3% compared to 2014. the average revenue per subject also suffered a decline of 3.1% compared to 2014, to 0.77 euros.
as postal traffic, “the human resources associated with postal networks and services have been showing a downward trend over the past few years,” underlines the Anacom. And in 2015 remained the trend, albeit less sharply, with employment in the postal sector fell 0.2%.
However, according to the regulator, “the reduction of human resources associated with networks and postal services has been less than proportional to the decrease in traffic. “
