Employees would get $15,000 to leave, letter carriers will not be eligible
WASHINGTON - The Postal Service is offering $15,000 buyouts to employees in an effort to cut costs at a time when the post office is being buffeted by the recession and the popularity of e-mail and electronic bill payment.
Up to 30,000 employees could take the offer at a total cost of about $450 million, the agency said Tuesday. The post office said it could save as much as $500 million in the next two years.
The agency said it reached an agreement on the buyout offer with the American Postal.
