JARAP

The NALC and the USPS announced their agreement on a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on route adjustments. The new Joint Alternate Route Adjustment Process (JARAP) updates and improves the alternate route adjustment process by mandating automatic data integrity reviews and gives both the union and management a say in which routes will be subject to review. While the unfinished MIARAP adjustments will be completed first, routes to be evaluated as part of the JARAP agreement will be identified by May 21, 2010 for March and April data and by June 18, 2010 for April and May data. Further details on the new agreement will be included in the June Postal record.

Upcoming Branch events:

How about two, then?

Buried at the bottom of a piece in a recent edition of The Washington Post on PMG Jack Potter was this quote from his remarks at April's National Postal Forum in Nashville: "The value of going to four days—removing a second day—is even greater."
