The U.S. National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) recently filed complaints against the United States Postal Service (USPS), alleging that the USPS violated the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) by failing to collectively bargain with its employees’ union regarding the postal service’s response to a 2014 data breach that reportedly affected over 800,000 current and former postal employees. Specifically, in one of its complaints, the NLRB alleged that the postal service’s unilateral decision to provide credit monitoring and fraud insurance to affected employees without engaging in collective bargaining with the union on these issues violated Sections 8(a)(1) and (5) of the NLRA. These provisions of the NLRA mandate collective bargaining for any issue that relates to the “wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment.”
