The Postal Service has nine collective bargaining agreements with seven different unions, representing more than 500,000 employees. Work on implementation and interpretation of these contracts is continuous, and processes have been developed to more efficiently manage contract disputes. We also continue to seek additional contract flexibility in staffing to meet operational needs more efficiently in a highly competitive delivery marketplace.
Throughout the year, senior management and key functional leaders consult with management organizations that represent our postmasters and supervisors. This allows association leaders to participate directly in the planning, development and implementation of major postal initiatives. It also provides a way for these leaders to provide feedback directly to USPS leadership, and provide informed, independent communications to their membership.
