USPS To Cut 7,500 Jobs

The U.S. Postal Service is shrinking its workforce by up to 30,000 employees this year. The Postal Service confirms that 7,500 positions could be eliminated as part of a redesign that the post office has planned. Another 22,000 positions would be removed through attrition - that number is the average attrition rate for the last six years according to an agency spokesperson. The Postal Service will announce its redesign plans later this month.
