Southeast Pennsylvania Merged Branch Item to the April 2020 Postal Record Eric K. Jackson, Branch 725 Vice- President & Scribe Safety! It’s a major priority in the district. The NALC will never disagree with an emphasis being placed on safety. After all, article 14 of the National Agreement addresses safety. Simply put, we want our members to have a lasting and safe experience while at work and beyond. The problem comes with management. They always go too far to make their point. This is when discipline comes into the picture. Many members are being taken off the clock (placed in a non-pay status) when found by management to not be following safety rules. The #1 issue is earbuds and seatbelts. It sounds simple but our members seem to be cutting corners. But in doing so, we can be cutting our lives. The seatbelts work. But until it happens to someone close to us, we seem to think “not us”. Let’s change this way of thinking. Elsewhere, our greatest challenge has been attendance. But it directly ties to staffing. Many of our members have been so worn out due to so much work that they break down or wear down. The challenge has been unscheduled absences. Please be careful when calling out sick to stay away from social media. Believe it or not, that has been a major problem. We have been battling every attendance discipline but eventually they are removed. So, when a carrier talks about calling out for not the “right” reasons, we must give them tough love and good advice. It sounds hokey, but when a member is removed, it seems to take away a piece of that shop steward that worked harder to save the carrier’s job than they seemed to have. I would like to thank every member who appeared in the February Postal Record for their contributions to the LCPF! #LetsNotBeAprilFools Eric Jackson, Branch 725 |

The President's Report Les Dillman March 19, 2020 Business Agents Office Please contact me in writing via email whether management is providing supplies to carriers daily as needed such as hand sanitizers and disinfecting wipes, and whether the surfaces in the offices are being disinfected daily. I need to know in each facility whether they have enough supplies to safeguard employees(and ultimately customers), or whether they do not. Also, what you are being told regarding this from management in the facility. Please begin this immediately, we need to get our arms around the USPSs capacity to keep our employees safe, facility by facility. If there are any questions please feel free to call.
