Postal Service cancels its Paterson NJ veterans ceremony
Veterans are fighting mad after
learning a long-standing tradition — a Memorial Day ceremony at
Paterson's main post office on Ward Street — has been canceled.
The reason: Reportedly the post office can't afford the coffee,
doughnuts and overtime — an estimated $1,000. "They didn't want
to pay for the overtime," said Ed Falato, Navy veteran and vice
president of the carrier's union at the post office. It's the
first time in 30 years that the morning ceremony has been
canceled, he said. |

League of Postmasters President on Postal Legislation and Closing Post Offices
-
One particularly disturbing development is the thought that the Postal Service is overstaffed by
30%. That is a fascinating idea as almost universally, Postmasters are running
offices that are seriously understaffed. Certainly, there are still plants out
there that have hundreds of extra employees, but, by and large, associate
offices do not have that luxury. Along with the thought that we are overstaffed
by 30%, is the concept that we have 30% too many post offices. While it is an
established fact that closing the 10,000 smallest post offices would save only
about a half of one percent of the Postal Service’s operating budget, the
thought persists that we need to close these offices because they are
unprofitable. |
Postal
Worker’s Letter to PRC: Don’t End Saturday Delivery – Save Money
Elsewhere
- Letter from a Texas Postal Clerk to the PRC: Money is being
wasted on salaries for supervisory positions. We have too many
of them. I feel the 204B program should be eliminated. The Postal Service is a SERVICE
company. We have not been giving good service in my opinion. I
don’t think we should eliminate one day of the week of service
to save money. On weekends we have plenty of mail to work and we
get it out on time. It’s ridiculous to cut service to save money
when the real problem of saving money is at the top. |

Court Finds Arbitration Award
Unenforceable on Address Management Systems specialist
-
This case is before the
Court on remand from a decision of the D.C. Circuit. Am.
Postal Workers Union v. U.S. Postal Serv., 550 F.3d 27 (D.C.
Cir. 2008). Before the Court is the question of whether a
particular finding in an award resulting from arbitration
between the American Postal Workers Union and the United States
Postal Service is enforceable. The parties have fully
briefed the question. Upon consideration of the briefs and the
record of this case, the Court concludes that the finding is
unenforceable and summary judgment should be entered in favor of
USPS.

USPS OIG:
Can the Postal Service Further Consolidate the Area and District
Administrative Office Structure?
In the past 18 years, the Postal Service has reorganized its
field structure at least three times. In 1992, the Postal
Service reorganized its field structure from five regions and 73
field divisions into 10 areas and 85 districts. From 2002-2006
the Postal Service changed its field structure to nine areas and
80 districts, and adjusted again in 2009 to eight areas and 74
districts."

Five-Day Delivery Campaign Driving Away Businesses, APWU Says
“At a time when the USPS should be
exploring every available avenue to increase volume and revenue,
this seriously flawed PR offensive seems to be driving business
away,” Morris said. He urged the commission to reject the Postal
Service’s proposal, saying it would “needlessly weaken the
Postal Service, a very valuable and essential American
institution.” Abolishing Saturday delivery also would deepen the
divide between services provided to rich and poor neighborhoods,
Morris said. Private couriers would fill the void for Saturday
services in the more profitable locations, leaving the Postal
Service to serve rural and poor communities."

Could USPS Be the Key To Investigating Landis
Doping Allegations?
Floyd Landis admitted doping between 2002 and 2006. For three of
those years he rode for a team sponsored by the United States
Postal Service... When the USPS terminated its nine-year sponsorship of the
[cycling] team at the
end of 2004, it was reported the agency's commitment had risen
to around $8m a year. Certainly over the course of the
sponsorship, tens of millions of dollars were paid to sponsor
the team.

Follows union lawsuit to stop coercion when investigators seek information;
tougher restrictions for OIG agents, postal inspectors. The NALC has
entered into

that imposes significant new restrictions on OIG agents and
postal inspectors when they seek to obtain confidential medical
information about employees from the employees’ doctors or other

Postal Rates Headed Higher -- Again
Come January,
mailers will have to pony up more for postage. In the cards: A 2
cent hike in the price of first-class stamps -- to 46 cents each
-- and up to a 5% boost in postage for magazines, catalogs and
bulk mail. The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) realizes that raising
rates will accelerate the shift by businesses and other mailers
to e-mail and nudge businesses to increase their targeted Web
advertising efforts." |
Mail Carrier

A mail carrier has been charged with theft after

complex at about 4:45 p.m., returned to the post office and clocked out at about
6 p.m. without informing anyone. She said she went back to the complex after
work but the mail was gone. |

USPS Blanket
Policy To Challenge Postal Employees With Too Much FMLA Leave??
During an EEOC hearing
several months ago involving a USPS FMLA
Coordinator in Michigan admitted that the
"Agency policy is to challenge any certification for absences
that allow an employee to take off work a great deal." The EEOC
administrative judge wrote," This policy shows that the Agency
is not complying with the Rehabilitation Act because it is not
accessing each employee's need for absences on an individualized
basis but simply challenges all requests for absences that it
feels are general too many."

Burrus: A
Pig with Lipstick... Is Still a Pig
Through the years, my criticism of
the USPS has been consistent: Top-level managers have converted
the Postal Service — a public service — into an arm of
commercial mailers. As a result, the natural tension between the
union and the employer has been influenced by management’s bias
towards its biggest and most powerful customers. |
APWU Urges PRC to Save Saturday Delivery
at Memphis Field Hearing
"APWU Assistant Clerk Craft Director Mike Morris explained that
by abolishing Saturday delivery, private couriers would fill the
void in the more profitable locations, leaving the Postal
Service to serve rural and poor communities, without the
financial benefit of providing service to more lucrative areas.
As an example, he explained that while more affluent parts of
Memphis would likely fare well under a private delivery system,
poorer communities would most assuredly become underserved."

Post
Office Waste Could Cost Mail Day
The postal service has been in
trouble for many years," said Tom Schatz with the group Citizens
Against Government Waste. "They have not been running it as an
efficient business. "Schatz pointed to a recent report from the
Office of the Inspector General. It showed the postal service
spent more than $792,000 "without justification" on meals in a
5-month period. $2.9 billion went to vehicle repairs because of
an ineffective warranty and reimbursement process. Inspectors
also found that of the 117 postal facilities checked for lease
rates, 26% paid above the going market rate. Rachel Clobodien
with the National Taxpayers Union said the post office is
spending close to $1 million a week on a practice called
stand-by time. It's when employees are paid even when there is
no work to be done. "That is about $50 million a year," she
said. |

Burrus: USPS Postage Discounts Are Illegal, Self-Defeating
Postage discounts for major mailers
are illegal and “self-defeating,” APWU President William Burrus
told lawmakers May 12. Excessive discounts for corporate mailers
who engage in worksharing “deprive the USPS of revenue that is
essential to maintain the nation’s mail network,” he said.
“Workshare discounts artificially reduce the mailing costs of
favored customers — large mailers — at the expense of individual
citizens and small businesses,” Burrus told the House
Subcommittee on Federal Workforce, Postal Service, and the
District of Columbia.

Gonzalez continued: “It’s a spiral to the elimination of the

All of this is designed to accelerate significant savings and become

days -- removing a second day -- is even greater," he said.
Although no such plans exist, Potter said that Tuesdays are the
second-slowest day of the week.

Quarter
The
U.S. Postal Service, which has said it may lose $7 billion this
year, narrowed its fiscal second quarter loss to $1.6 billion. For
the three months that ended on March 31, total volume was 3.3 percent
less than the same period in 2009. Even with a one-time boost of
$180 million of First-Class Mail revenue related to the Census,
revenue at $16.7 billion was still 1.4 percent less than the same
period a year ago. For the six months ending March 31 the total
net loss is $1.9 Billion.

Fines USPS $217,000 for Safety Violations in Denver Just Days After
Citations Issued in Providence
-
In four “willful” violations,
inspectors found postal employees working on equipment they were
not familiar with and properly trained to maintain; on machinery
with exposed, live parts that were not de-energized; in areas with
potential electrical hazards; and without protective equipment for
the eyes and face, exposing them to injury from electric arcs, flashes,
or flying objects. These violations accounted for $210,000 in fines.
The remaining $7,000 fine was associated with a serious safety violation
in which safety signs, symbols, or accident prevention tags were
not used to warn employees about potential electrical hazards.
