Oman’s Telecom Regulatory Authority (TRA) has introduced new guidelines aimed at reducing the carbon footprint of postal services across the country. These guidelines apply to both licensed postal service providers and their contractors, focusing on reducing emissions from various postal operations such as packaging, transportation, and storage.
The new measures aim to achieve several key objectives, starting with a reduction in waste generation, which has a significant environmental impact. By promoting more sustainable practices, the guidelines will contribute to the conservation of natural resources for future generations. Furthermore, the TRA’s initiative is expected to bring long-term financial savings for postal companies by encouraging energy-efficient practices and reducing overall waste.
