USPS: Approximately 10,000 employees have agreed to take the early retirement package.

In 2025, nearly 10,500 U.S. Postal Service employees opted for a voluntary early retirement plan, receiving a $15,000 incentive, aligning closely with the agency's expectations. This move is part of a broader strategy to cut costs, following a reduction of 30,000 employees since 2021. While aiming to enhance its financial health through its 10-year Delivering for America plan, the Postal Service reported a $3.1 billion net loss in Q3, attributed to rising operational expenses. The agency is also focusing on boosting revenue through its package shipping services.
