USPS rural carriers ‘still waiting to get paid’ as payroll errors hit another paycheck

Postal Service rural mail carriers who missed a paycheck, or received a partial paycheck, two weeks ago because of a USPS payroll error are still waiting to get paid — and in some cases, are seeing the same problems persistent for another payday.

More than half a dozen rural carriers across the country told Federal News Network they received an incomplete paycheck for the second pay period in a row this Friday, or are still waiting on their Sept. 1 paycheck. Rural carriers requested anonymity to discuss their circumstances.

A rural carrier in Missouri said that none of his coworkers have received their Sept. 1 paycheck, “that we were assured we would have no later than today, 9/15.”

“This is a HUGE problem and burden for us,” the carrier said.
