Sisters and Brothers:
The attached MOU (Temporary Exception Period Clerk Craft Staffing
Function 1 & Function 4COVID19) will help facilitate the other temporary
memoranda we have recently signed as well as the Liberal Change of
Schedule and Leave policy we have secured in response to the coronavirus
pandemic.
Those temporary MOUs, policy changes and other useful information can
be found at apwu.org/coronavirus
Through May 25, 2020, the Postal Service may hire additional temporary
employees called Function 1 Mail Processing Assistants and Function 4
Clerk Assistants. As with the other MOUs, career clerks and PSEs should
be utilized up to the maximum allowable hours each week.
Also, all new Clerk Assistants that are hired will be provided safety training
and training/updates/stand-up talks on the current COVID19 policies and
procedures at the USPS.
Please consult the attached memorandum and disseminate as appropriate.
In solidarity,
Mark Dimondstein
President
