H.R. 1560: Postal Supervisors and Managers Fairness Act of 2025

This bill, titled the Postal Supervisors and Managers Fairness Act of 2025, proposes changes to how the United States Postal Service (USPS) negotiates pay and benefits for its supervisory and managerial personnel.

Key Provisions

The main aspects of the bill are as follows:

1. Notification for Pay Proposals

• The USPS must provide a written proposal to the supervisors' organization at least 60 days before any existing pay policies, schedules, or fringe benefit programs are set to expire. This applies to changes that affect supervisory personnel.
• Additionally, when a collective bargaining agreement is reached that affects supervisor and manager pay policies, the USPS is required to submit a written proposal to the supervisors' organization within 60 days. This ensures that the supervisors' organization is informed about any changes that may affect their members’ pay and benefits.

2. Dispute Resolution Process

• The bill modifies the process for resolving disputes between the USPS and the supervisors' organization regarding pay and benefits. Specifically, if there are disagreements about the proposals, both parties are encouraged to use the existing or any new procedures to resolve these differences.
• Furthermore, it establishes a timeline for final determinations on these disputes. After a panel makes a recommendation, the panel must issue its final determination within 15 days, and this determination will be binding on both the USPS and the supervisors’ organization.

3. Purpose and Objective

The intent of this bill is to enhance fairness and transparency in the negotiation processes for supervisory and managerial employees within the USPS, aiming to provide them with a more structured approach to pay and benefits.
