Accessibility
With around 66,000 customers a day in CTT Post Offices, accessibility is one of its hallmarks.
People with disabilities deserve special attention from CTT and the company has continued to carry out modernisation and refurbishment work. The types of accessibility that have been built include modernisation and refurbishment works to improve accessibility to our facilities for people with physical disabilities. The works include, for example, the construction of:
- indoor and outdoor access ramps
- lifting platforms
- removable ramps
- ramps in the public space next to the shop entrance
- alterations to storefronts to open a door on side elevations.
Around 95 per cent of all the shops currently have improved accessibility conditions, in a continuous effort to improve access conditions for everyone.
