Section 2.1 Statement of Principles[edit]

The Employer and the Union agree that there shall be no discrimination by the Employer or the Union against employees because of race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex (including pregnancy), age, or marital status. In addition, consistent with the other provisions of this Agreement, there shall be no unlawful discrimination against employees or individuals with disabilities, as prohibited by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 or the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974.

Explanation:

The addition of “pregnancy” and “individuals with disabilities” will clarify
Article 2 to protect Mail Handlers who are pregnant, and who may have
a disability. The inclusion of this language makes clear that the
protections of Article 2 cover employees falling within these terms.
