Information for Letter Carriers Who Have Received Excessing Notices
You may have recently received notification that your are going to be excessed from your installation or you may have heard some rumbling around the office about carriers being excessed to other installations. If a Postal Installation anticipates they are going to have too many Letter Carriers and may have to excess them to other installations, the employer is required by the terms of the National Agreement to give the Letter Carriers at least a 60 day advance notice. Carriers in the are now receiving those notices. Recently several carriers have already been excessed throughout the branch. The Union is going to make every effort to minimize any adverse impact on the excessed carriers. The Union is meeting with senior Postal management to make sure any excessing is done in accordance with the National Agreement. Not everyone who received a notice will be excessed. We believe that excessing should be kept to a minimum. Before the employer excesses employees to other installations the contract requires the employer to reduce the workhours of PTF's to the extent possible. In the vast majority of our offices the PTF’s are working 40+ hours per week. The National Agreement requires that there be no TE's in a office before excessing occurs.
