On May 8, 2011, representatives from the American Postal Workers Union (APWU) spoke during a “town hall meeting” to Postal Uniform Xpress and other uniform vendors at a conference in Orlando, Florida.
As part of the meeting, the representatives provided an update on the tentative 2010-2015 Collective Bargaining Agreement between USPS and APWU. They explained the tentative agreement is currently out to each member on referendum vote and that ballots would be counted on May 14.
The tentative agreement would also create more jobs, including jobs for veterans, and has a four and a half year duration, which the APWU representatives said was their longest initial contract to date. Postal Uniform Xpress will keep you updated on the results.
