On the 10th, the Ministry of Science and ICT's Postal Service Headquarters announced that on the 9th, the Post Office Logistics Support Group and the Parcel Delivery Union Post Office Headquarters successfully reached a tentative agreement on the collective agreement, centered on the withdrawal of the strike.

Both labor and management recognized the public inconvenience caused by the strike and made mutual concessions to reduce differences in positions, tentatively agreeing to conclude the collective agreement. According to the tentative agreement between labor and management, the Parcel Delivery Union will withdraw the strike starting from the 10th and deliver parcel mail normally.

According to the agreement, "The standard volume will be based on the previous year's annual average daily delivery volume per parcel entrusted delivery worker, and both labor and management will jointly strive to maintain a level of 175 to 190 parcels per month by adjusting delivery areas as much as possible," and "improvements in treatment such as increasing holiday gift allowances for entrusted delivery workers" will be implemented.

The Post Office Logistics Support Group and the Parcel Delivery Union Post Office Headquarters temporarily suspended the strike during the strike period and conducted five intensive negotiations over two weeks starting from the 24th of last month. They reached a joint agreement on realizing a nationwide uniform standard volume by considering regional volume variations, which had been a contentious issue. This tentative agreement will be finalized after a union member vote by the labor union side.

An official from the Postal Service Headquarters said, "The Post Office Logistics Support Group and the Parcel Delivery Union Post Office Headquarters have derived a tentative agreement, which will help reduce public inconvenience."
