US Postal Service - Trim Workforce by 10,000 in 2015

In the past, the USPS has offered buyouts to reduce its ranks, including a 2012 $15,000 offer that led to the separation of 26,000 workers. That won't happen this time, Donahoe said, but with an average employee age of 52, forced reductions shouldn't be necessary.
"We have been good planners and we use overtime and other things to work our way through that," he said.
Donahoe called on Congress to help with flexibility he said the USPS needs to move back into the black. A bill currently before the Senate would waive a requirement the USPS pre-fund retiree health benefits - a cost of about $5.5 billion a year - as well as allowing it to end Saturday mail delivery.
