Royal Mail posts RFID tags to monitor deliveries
Royal Mail is using radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to monitor the flow of post, to identify problem areas and improve delivery services.
Last year more than 14 million letters were lost, stolen, damaged or tampered with, and more than seven per cent of mail was not delivered on time.
The company is conducting a trial at three mail centres ahead of a possible rollout to all its 69 mail centres.
