TOP NEWS STORIES
APWU Reaches $49 Million Dollar Settlement With USPS on POStPlan Violations
2.24.2018 - The APWU reports: "The dispute was initiated after the Postal Service admittedly failed to honor their agreement that after December 22, 2014, the 'POStPlan' Remotely-Managed Post Offices (RMPOs) open 4 or 6 hours a day would be staffed with bargaining unit clerks, and Level 18 offices would be staffed with career employees. Long after the agreement, Postmaster Reliefs (PMRs) were still working in 4 or 6 hour RMPOs across the country and Level 18 offices reported still using PSEs instead of career employees." - Comments (Count)
Amazon's Rise Has Pushed Mail Clerks and Carriers to the Breaking Point
2.21.2018 - The Nation reports: "Amazon was able to make a deal to ship its packages through USPS at cut-rate prices, because the company preemptively sorts and labels packages by postal route. But transporting and distributing these packages still takes clerks much longer than sorting letters, which can be fed through a machine. If the clerks are delayed, the station's carriers will be delayed in starting routes, which are already longer than ever thanks to the packages filling up their satchels and trucks. Many won't deliver their final box until well after the sun has set." - Comments (Count)
Trump Suggests USPS Cut Retirement, Health Benefits in $80B Savings Package
2.15.2018 - GovExec reports: "Trump's proposals largely mirrored those submitted in his last budget, as well as legislation that has been introduced in Congress. While lawmakers have sought to maintain delivery standards, however, Trump would allow USPS to "reduce mail delivery frequency from six days to five days where there is a business case for doing so." That proposal would likely face pushback in Congress, especially from lawmakers representing rural areas, and even postal management has dropped its proposal to eliminate mail delivery on Saturdays." - Linn's: Budget Proposes Numerous USPS Changes - NALC: Budget Targets Letter Carriers and Their Families - APWU: 2019 Budget Continues Attacks on Postal and Federal Workers - Comments (Count)
USPS Reports First Quarter 2018 Results
2.09.2018 - USPS reports: "Net loss for the first quarter totaled $540 million, compared to net income of $1.4 billion, for the same period last year. In the first quarter 2018, package volumes grew by 111 million pieces, or approximately 7%, while mail volumes declined by approximately 2.0 billion pieces, or approximately 5%, continuing a multi-year trend of increasing package volume and declining letter volumes." - NALC Statement - CAGW: Losses Show Continued Distress - Comments (Count)
