45,000 USPS Workers Aren’t Getting Paid This Week Amidst Union Decertification Push

The USPS missed payroll for more than 45,000 rural postal workers this week due what their union called “an egregious payroll error.”

Workers will instead have the option of effectively taking out a loan via money order. The timing is not the most auspicious as it comes during a push by some rural carriers to decertify their union, which is seen by many workers as not doing enough to protect their interests after more than two-thirds of them took a pay cut determined by an algorithm earlier this year.

Instead of their pay, workers are being offered a money order that must be paid back due to what USPS called a “programming issue.”

Good luck ever getting your money! I’m owed $7,000.00 from route growth in 2020!!
I have already signed pet*tion to decertify the NRLCA because they refused to file grievance for my compensation for additional 200 deliveries.
