The American Postal Workers Union (APWU) and the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) have reached a tentative agreement on a new three-year collective bargaining contract, covering employees nationwide.
The proposed contract, finalized on June 2, 2025, spans from September 21, 2024, through September 20, 2027, reported APWU.
The public mail system has long faced funding issues and has been a point of contention for many administrations. Postal workers across the country rallied against the dismantling of the United States Postal Service on Sunday.
Although the agreement extends no-layoff protections to many employees with fewer than six years of service, apprehensions persist about potential job security, especially for those not yet covered.
