Contract Interpretation Manual

Introduction

This Contract Interpretation Manual (CIM), jointly prepared by the National Postal

Mail Handlers Union and the United States Postal Service, represents a good

faith effort to identify contractual issues on which the National parties are in

agreement regarding interpretation and application of the parties’ 2000 National

Agreement. The CIM is referenced in the National Agreement between the

parties at Article 15, Section .3E, which is reprinted below. (Note that actual

language from the National Agreement, Memoranda of Understanding and

Letters of Intent is shaded in gray throughout the CIM.)
