I ; |'i i ' Customers of New Zealand Post will now be served by staff wearing a corporate wardrobe launched { this week. Christchurch counter staff had a chance to see at a fashion parade at the Chateau Regency yesterday the colour coordinated men’s {rand women’s garments; by the Wellington designer, Roland Wimmers. The South Island regional manager of New Zealand Post, Mr ISyd Bradley, said customers’ most recent memory of
staff clothing would probably be the smo{cks worn by some women post office workers. { The modern range of mix; and match Garments, which were made in Wellington by W.E. Spalding, Ltd, was in keeping with Nriw Zealand Post’s new market image and corporate status. The clothes are coloured red, white and grey. | . j Mr Bradley said the wardrobe was not a Uniform. Although staff would have to partially pay for the clothes most
were keen to wear them. i'll “Some staff who have taken voluntary seyerance after corporatisajtion were so enthusiastic about the { clothes that they wanted to buy them for their; personal wardrobes,” he said. ! Garments from the wardrobe would be worn by staff dealing with the public. Posties would continue to wear staff clothing, most commonly the (New Zealand Post (track suits, Mr Bradley said.
