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.

APWU website. Read it

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
