Wazzup Pilipinas!?
In line with its commitment to public service and employee welfare, the Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost) has implemented new measures that reinforce safety, accessibility, and inclusivity within its facilities.
Acting Postmaster General and CEO Maximo C. Sta. Maria III directed the initiatives, starting with a fire safety drill last 11 September 2025, where key postal workers were equipped with both principles and hands-on experience on how to respond effectively to fire-related emergencies.
“This is not just timely, but also a necessity. What we’ll learn today are life skills we can apply not just here but also in our respective communities,” Atty. Lee P. Viceral, Assistant Postmaster General for Management Support Services and Risk Management Committee Chairman, said as he opened the event.
All areas were also directed to conduct their respective earthquake and fire drills nationwide as part of disaster preparedness activities indicated in the corporation’s Public Service Continuity Plan (PSCP).
With recurrent flooding affecting the area especially during heavy rains, PHLPost constructed a pedestrian pathway to ensure uninterrupted access to its premises, allowing the public to avail its services regardless of the weather.
In addition, PHLPost completed installing a ramp for differently-abled persons, making its facilities more inclusive for everyone. It is also exploring the opportunity of hiring more individuals who may be physically challenged but are qualified as part of its workforce.
With these initiatives, PHLPost continues to foster a safe, accessible, and inclusive environment that empowers its employees, enabling them to serve the needs of the public in a better, more efficient way.
