On August 12, 2025, the July Consumer Price Index (CPI-W 1967=100) was released. This is the index that sets the Cost-of-Living Allowances (COLAs) for the APWU contracts. In July, the final month of the six-month adjustment period for the second COLA under the 2024 Agreement, the CPI-W Unadjusted Index (1967=100) increased from last month to 942.307.
Based on this increase, the second COLA for career employees who fall under the National Agreement will be $811.00 per year. That equates to 39¢ per hour. So far, under the 2024 National Agreement, employees have accrued adjustments totaling $1,206.
