Asier Orio, METAPOSTA
‘We are increasingly being asked for everything to be in Basque’
Metaposta was created from an idea that began to develop in 2008. Initially launched as an individual mailbox, the development of the last few years has turned it into something more, a private communication platform. Metaposta offers the opportunity to digitalise relations between employees and companies, and is also the only one to offer this service in Basque. We interviewed Asier Orio, director of Metaposta.
Orio says, ‘We primarily visit companies to present Metaposta as a private communication platform. In other words, the company creates mailboxes to send payslips, contracts, etc.' and adds that ’What these companies want is to digitalise relations between the staff and the company, and METAPOSTA is a good option for this. An option that, in addition to being good, was created in Basque’.
Asier Orio says that ‘nowadays, more and more people are asking us for everything to be in Basque: the contract to be signed, the platform, the messages.... And that the person on the other side also replies in Basque. Yes, at least for our part we have noticed that change'.
As a member of the INDEUS platform, the director of Metaposta assures us that ‘for us it is a great help, as it allows us to meet, get to know other people and companies, which is, from our point of view, essential to be able to generate collaboration’.
