Kazpost has been ranked 39th in the latest Universal Postal Union (UPU) global index, which assesses more than 180 countries, the company’s press service reported.
One of the key factors behind the improvement was a reduction in CO₂ emissions, reflecting Kazpost’s commitment to global sustainability and environmental responsibility.
“By advancing ESG principles — environmental, social, and corporate governance — Kazpost is implementing a comprehensive sustainability strategy. This includes a gradual transition to energy-efficient lighting across post offices and logistics centers,” the company stated.
