Are postal workers unionized?

Career: Postal Worker

Postal workers are unionized. The American Postal Workers Union (APWU) is part of the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO). The APWU negotiates pay and benefits for postal workers. The union also fights against the threat of privatization or consolidation of the postal service, post office closures, and other issues that have the potential to directly impact postal workers and the customers of the post office. One of the goals of APWU is to promote legislation that preserves the U.S. Postal Service.
