Northeast Massachusetts APWU Local Urges NO Vote On Tentative Agreement

Posted on by postal

PostalReporter.com received the following message:

The Northeast Massachusetts has put together a list of issues contained in the new National Contract proposal that National APWU leadership is not addressing. It is the view of this local that this new contract proposal does grave damage to the rights of present members. It basically undermines all the gains of the APWU agreed to in past contracts. Please read the attached flyer and be aware of the potential harm this contract can do if ratified.  Download PDF

  2. I have been looking for someone to explain the fine details, because the “highlights” provided by APWU were so general, and I couldn’t get to the truth by reading the legalize of the contract. After reading this, which was NOT user friendly, I hope that more voting members will have an opportunity to really see how much we are giving away & how little USPS is giving up. We all know that management is getting fat off of USPS, now, we can see that National APWU wants a piece of that action too. There are reports that 80% of USPS expenses are workforce, but no one ever breaks that down in to what % goes to the labors that actually do the work vs what % goes to management. If that were ever revealed, I think that the source of USPS’s financial problems would become obvious.
