Tentative Date Announced For
Retro-Active Back Pay & More
|
|
The
USPS has announced a tentative date for the retro-active
back pay owed to employees under the 2024-2027 Contract.
The payment date has been set at April 10, 2026.
The APWU believes the back pay calculations
can be completed
sooner that April 10, 2026 and is pressing the USPS on
this issue.
The
retro-active pay will caover all paid hours from Nov.
16, 2024 to Aug. 23, 2025. We cannot tell you how
much the back pay will since people's total paid hours
may be different. Someone who worked overtime will
get more, while someone who used LWOP will get less.

provisions:
-
Night Shift Differential Increase of 4.0%
begins September 20, 2025

Grade 3 to Grade 4 begins November 1, 20

COLA Increases Add To Member's
Paychecks
|
|
The
APWU recently reported that several of the retro active
pay increases from the 2024-2027 contract are now in
effect.
|
COLA |
Amount |
|
February 2025 |
$ 395.00 |
|
August 2025 |
$ 811.00 |
|
TOTAL |
$ 1,206.00
/ per year |
It is important to remind everyone that the APWU is the
only
Postal Union where
all
career employees get the full amount of the COLA.
The Carrier and Mailhandler Unions agreed to a
"sliding scale" COLA where senior employees get the
full amount and junior employees get less.
This is not fair and APWU President Dminodstein fought
for, and won, full COLA for all APWU represented
career employees!
