UB72, I'd not have guessed that checking the "I do not wish to participate" box would count as participating.
But that's fine by me.
I suggest; check the box.
More employees participating and smaller percentages of favorable scores (more realistic scores).

I love being a Mailhandler but I'm having hard time moving up. Has anyone been on Reassignment or Ecareeer put in for jobs and has gotten turned down. I've been to A- plus meetings and met people, but nothing good has came out of it. Did anyone take the postal police assesment test?

guggenmos, have you talked to your union steward about this?? He/she knows how to file a grievance. The national agreement requires management to repost a job for bid if sdo's are changed.
Tom Henrichs. Throw your VOE survey in the garbage. No one in management really cares what you think.

I've gotten a card telling me to expect a VOE 3rd Quarter, 2013 survey.
The last VOE scorecard posted at my facility is for 2nd Quarter, 2012.
Has VOE been non-active the past 12 months?

Lita lips. The new national agreement would allow management to hire MHA's and still keep the PTF's. The controlling language mandates management to convert within 180 days (mid August)the PTF's to FTR. If there currently are residual vacancies in the craft and your facility is not under withholding, you should be converted to FTR status immediately. And whether you are a PTF or a junior FTR, management still has the contractual right to mandate you on holidays as non-vols and move you for vacation coverage. They may have to pay out of schedule premium to do so, but it may happen. You are much better off becoming FTR, but that doesn't always protect you from being mandated and moved out of your bid position. Edited 04-07-2013 05:12 PM

1ptf, The carrier coming into the mail handler craft has nowhere to go in the craft other than becoming a FTR. Remember, we won't have PTF's in 200 man year facilities anymore. You right now are stuck in a transition period with our new national agreement. And Lita Lips is right, when converted to FTR in August you will be senior to the new transfer. Bend in OR, Inputing times may be in the job description of a Dock Technician or Group Leaders which are L5 positions and anytime you are driving a fork should also be paid at higher level. Make sure that you are punching into those operations when performing that work and ask your union to file a grievance if you're not receiving proper compensation. But 5 years? Sorry, can only go back 14 days! Good Luck Edited 04-02-2013 07:31 PM

lptf seems like that would be a grievance but u will have more seniority them him if that means anything to u i know how u feel my plant has already hired mha and i havent been rolled over to ftr yet but i already know our plant manger is going to wait till the last day to roll us over so we will have to work the holidays and holiday weeken and cover ftr vacation and fill in when they have exhausted the odl

local agreements vs. nat'l agreements. I'm lost. Been a pft since '08; and just last month a new employee arrived via e-reasign as a ftr from the carrier craft. My union folks say don't worry the person who handled his transfer paperwork admits he made a mistake. And besides; you'll become regular in Aug. like the contract says.

Anyone know if sealing trucks, inputing T.I.M.E.S. into the dock computer, and occasionally driving the forklift as a licensed driver qualifies for level 5 pay? I've been doing this for 5 years as a level 4. Would be nice to get back pay for the last 5 years at level 5!

I was/am excited to read i will finally be FTR thank u I think its a good contract but the some of the FTR believe its not because it will cut out the ODL
my son score a 94 on the test hes only 24 and l he is number 4 on the list twenty clerks are suppose to retire so he will most likely be a promoted as well the union told him to a niffty ot ftr clerk unless the lexington crew get here before feb 2014 i have talk to him about the test but he is happy in the clerk craft but he said he will take it just to have some options because they get appointed every 360 or 359 day thank u some much for ur input

Lita Lips From Lou
Are you excited about becoming a FTR soon? 6 years and 3 months is a long time as a PTF for anyone to endure. Congradulations!
What do you think of our newly awarded National Agreement?
