IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON LITEBLUE SCAMS!!

APWU members are warned of two scams that have been occuring involving liteblue.  The first involves scammers that call employees and claim to be Postal Inpectors.  The inform the employee that their liteblue access has been locked and, in order to unlock it, the employee needs to verify their identify by providing the employee ID number and liteblue password.  If the scammers get the info, they log on to the employee's account and change thjeir direct deposit information to send their paycheck to another bank account.

The second scam affects people who use Google searches to log on to liteblue.  When they do a Google search for liteblue, some of the results that come up lead to fake liteblue sites.  The scammers hope you input your information so they can steal it.

More detailed information is on the APWU website.  Read it HERE

 

Maintenance LMOU Updated

We have completed negotaitions and signed-off on the 2021 - 2024 Maintenance Craft Local Memoiradum of Understanding for the Lehigh Valley P&DC.  We are in the process of having new LMOU books printed for every Maintenance Craft member at the plant.  Until they are ready, we have posted a copy of the new LMOU HERE.  Feel free to look it over and ask any questions you may have.

 

We are also planning to set up a number of Zoom meetings, with maintenance craft employees, to go over the changes int he agreement.  Keep an eye on the bulletin board for dates / times of meeting

 

PTF / PSE CANVASSING MOVES ONLINE

Effective February 01, 2022, the USPS will be moving all PTF/PSE Canvassing bids online as part of eReassign on litbelue.  Both the APWU and USPS realized there were problems with the current canvassing processes because some offices failed (refused?) to share the printed canvassing notices with their employees.  This resulted in many PTFs missing out on the opportunity to change offices, and PSEs were denied the opportunity to convert to a career position.

This new, digital, process will remove that obstacle and grant all employees equal opportunities to bid.  Postmasters in all offices have been instructed to give a service talk and post notices about this new process.  In anticipation of the fact that some will "forget" to do it, you can view the posting HERE.

 

PRE-PRINT COPY OF NEW CONTRACT

The APWU has released a pre-print copy of the tentative agreement.  This is a draft version which is pending proofreading and final editing before being printed and sent out to all members for the ratification vote.  You can get a head start on preparing for the vote if you want to review the document HERE
