Full OSHA Coverage for Letter Carriers
Postal employees are covered by the protections of the OSHA law-the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. The change is due to PESEA, the Postal Employees Safety Enhancement Act, passed in September, 1998 (see Materials page.)

To file a complaint or seek compliance information NALC representatives may contact OSHA's regional and area offices, or visit OSHA's Web site at http://www.osha.gov.
