Branch President

Norman "Wayne" Allen is the Branch President of the Charlotte Regional Processing and Distribution Center (RPDC) and the Charlotte Local Processing and Distribution Center (LPC) in North Carolina, where he represents approximately 1033 Mail Handlers, 728 are Union Members. 

In his almost 32 years of employment with the Postal Service and 29 years as a Union Representative, Wayne has served in the American Postal Workers Union as President and Clerk Craft Director. Prior to becoming the Branch President, Wayne served as a Chief Steward. As Branch President, Wayne's responsibilities include but are not limited to ensuring enforcement of the National Agreement.

Wayne believes in the Union because it gives rights to the workers to better their lives and their families lives instead of having to hope that an employer will pay a decent wage or give any benefits to the workers.
