Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Oesterreichische Post AG presents a mixed ethical picture. The company leads in sustainable logistics, operating Austria's largest electric vehicle fleet and aiming for all last-mile deliveries to be electric by 2030. It's also investing in renewable energy, targeting over 19 MWp of photovoltaic capacity by end 2024 and over 20% renewable electricity. However, critics point to its 2030 target to maintain 2021 Scope 1 & 2 emissions (674,880 tCO₂e) as a concern for overall carbon reduction. On worker respect, Oesterreichische Post AG shows strong collective bargaining coverage at 98%, though reports suggest five administrative penal proceedings related to labor law were pending in 2021, with one minor fine issued.
