Citrus Center Area Local # 3799

   Welcome to the Citrus Center Area Local's website. We hope this website will inform and educate the membership. There are many ways to improve our Union but without an informed and supportive membership we will never build a lasting presence that will consistently improve our collective working environment. 

   We can not afford to allow management to further their own agenda when it deprives us of our negotiated rights. We must not only sustain the support of the members, but also bring in our co-workers who are not paying union dues. We all need to participate. Please talk to non-members in your office about the many union accomplishments and the importance of everyone joining and supporting the APWU.

American Postal Workers Union

The APWU is the world's largest postal union, representing more than 330,000 USPS employees, and nearly 2,000 private-sector mail workers. For more than three decades, APWU has fought for dignity and respect on the job for the workers we represent, as well as for decent pay and benefits and safe working conditions. As an AFL-CIO affiliate, the APWU supports the struggle for social and economic justice for all working families.

Depending on their occupation, APWU members belong to the Clerk, Maintenance, Motor Vehicle, or Support Services divisions.

Our union is a democratic organization comprised of dues-paying members who belong to approximately 1,600 state and local unions and retiree chapters in every state and territory. APWU officers are directly elected by union members.
