dbpedia-owl:abstract	L'United States Postal Service (USPS) (Servei Postal dels Estats Units) és una agència del govern federal dels Estats Units. Fou creat l'any 1775 per Benjamin Franklin, i després, l'any 1792, es va fer part del govern, anomenat el Post Office Department (Departament de Correus). Der United States Postal Service (USPS) ist eine unabhängige Behörde der Vereinigten Staaten. Er nimmt die Aufgaben eines staatlichen Konzerns wahr, der Postdienstleistungen anbietet und auf bestimmte Postdienstleistungen ein Monopol besitzt. Der Hauptsitz befindet sich in Washington, D.C.. Er beschäftigt rund 600.000 Arbeitnehmer. Der USPS wurde 1775 aufgrund eines Dekretes des zweiten Kontinentalkongresses durch Benjamin Franklin gegründet. Von 1792 bis 1971 hatte ihr Leiter, der United States Postmaster General, Ministerrang inne, war also Mitglied der Bundesregierung. Internationale Sendungen werden im Bestimmungsland von demjenigen nationalen Unternehmen, das im Weltpostverein Mitglied ist, ausgeliefert (in der Regel das nationale Postunternehmen). The United States Postal Service (USPS), also known as the Post Office and U.S. Mail, is an independent agency of the United States government responsible for providing postal service in the United States. It is one of the few government agencies explicitly authorized by the United States Constitution. The USPS traces its roots to 1775 during the Second Continental Congress, where Benjamin Franklin was appointed the first postmaster general. The cabinet-level Post Office Department was created in 1792 from Franklin's operation and transformed into its current form in 1971 under the Postal Reorganization Act. The USPS employs over 574,000 workers and operates over 218,000 vehicles. The USPS is the operator of the largest vehicle fleet in the world. The USPS is legally obligated to serve all Americans, regardless of geography, at uniform price and quality. The USPS has exclusive access to letter boxes marked "U.S. Mail" and personal letterboxes in the United States, but still competes against private package delivery services, such as UPS and FedEx. On December 5, 2011 the USPS announced it would close more than half of its mail processing centers, eliminate 28,000 jobs and end overnight delivery of first-class mail. This will close down 252 of its 461 processing centers. On December 13, 2011 the USPS agreed to delay the closing of 252 mail processing centers as well as 3,700 local post offices until mid-May 2012. The USPS has not directly received taxpayer-dollars since the early 1980s with the minor exception of subsidies for costs associated with the disabled and overseas voters. However, it does receive tens to hundreds of millions per year in "implicit subsidies", such as breaks on property tax, vehicle registration, and sales tax, in addition to subsidized government loans. Revenue in the 2000s has been dropping sharply due to declining mail volume, prompting the postal service to look to other sources of revenue while cutting costs to reduce its budget deficit.

Maneja alrededor de 300.000 millones de piezas de correo anualmente para ser distribuidas una parte dentro de EE. UU. y otra al extranjero. Yhdysvaltain postilaitos (eng.

De United States Postal Service (USPS) is een agentschap van de Amerikaanse overheid dat zich bezig houdt met de bezorging van post. Bij het agentschap werken zo'n 574,000 mensen waarmee het de tweede werkgever is van de VS. De USPS maakt gebruik van meer dan 180,000 voertuigen. In 2010 had de USPS totale inkomsten rond de $67 miljard. De USPS heeft te kampen met een sterke neergang van het aantal verzendingen door de toename van e-mail en andere digitale technieken. Daardoor is het in financiele problemen geraakt. United States Postal Service (USPS) er en amerikansk føderal organisasjon med ansvar for formidling av postsendinger.

USPS ledes av et styre utpekt av den amerikanske presidenten. Styret utnevner generalpostmesteren, som fungerer som organisasjonens daglige leder. USPS har rundt 700 000 ansatte og formidler 206 milliarder postsendinger i året. Organisasjonen disponerer 213 585 kjøretøyer og 37 000 filialer.

Faktycznie, powstała w 1775 r. , jako United States Post Office (U.S.P.O. ), w wyniku postanowień Drugiego Kongresu Kontynentalnego. Odpowiada za świadczenie usług pocztowych wszystkim obywatelom Stanów Zjednoczonych, bez względu na położenie i z zapewnieniem im jednolitej ceny i jakości usług. Zatrudnia 596 000 pracowników, co czyni ją drugim co do wielkości cywilnym pracodawcą w Stanach Zjednoczonych (po Wal-Mart) i dysponuje flotą ponad 218 000 pojazdów, w wyniku czego jest największym na świecie operatorem taboru samochodowego. 50px Wikimedia Commons ma galerię ilustracji związaną z tematem:Title=United States Postal Service;ns=0/Main/;language:wiki=pl,locale=pl A United States Postal Service (USPS) ou, em língua portuguesa, Serviço Postal dos Estados Unidos é uma empresa governamental dos Estados Unidos da América responsável por providenciar o serviço de correio nos Estados Unidos da América.
