The Envelope Manufacturers Association Foundation’s (EMA) Institute of Postal Studies recently released its latest “Mailing Industry Job Study.”\

The study found that the U.S. Postal Service remains at the center of the $1.4 trillion industry that provides 7.5 million jobs—6 percent of all jobs in the United States. And 73 percent of these jobs are dependent on a thriving delivery infrastructure that includes manufacturing and distribution, as well as mail management and actual mail delivery.

Further, as the economy has continued to improve following the Great Recession, sales revenue associated with the delivery of the mail climbed to $158.8 billion in 2014, a 9.5 percent increase over figures from just three years before.
