Everything we do at the Postal Service, from fine-tuning our networks to purchasing new vehicles to enhancing tracking and visibility, has impact beyond our organization. The mailing industry depends on the Postal Service. According to the 2015 EMA Mailing Industry Job Study, the mailing industry provides 6 percent of the nation’s jobs — 7.5 million — and contributes to the economy with $1.4 trillion in revenue, an increase of 9.5 percent from 2011. The study reports that 73 percent of mail industry jobs depend on the delivery infrastructure at which USPS is the center. Our efforts to ramp up our investments in optimizing our retail, delivery, network, digital and enterprise platforms are crucial to deliver world-class service, improve efficiency and prepare our organization to meet future customer needs.
