Not unequivicollay no. But it does say
andOnce a delivery postperson leaves for delivery the clear expectation is that all mail must be delivered
All decisions must be made on the basis of a clear expectation that once the OPG departs from the Delivery Unit they will be able to deliver all mail in the remaining duty time. Failure to complete delivery could be investigated and may result in a conduct code interview.
If they instruct you to do that then ask for it to be put in writing as per the same document:BernardBresslaw wrote:I'm being asked to take all mail out with me, and only deliver first class and dated and bring the rest back. How is this not fraud? It allows managers to state that the office is clear of mail when they know mail will be coming back afterwards and not reporting it. Basically I am liable for any mail I bring back am I not? I need something in writing to cover myself in this regard. Thanks for any help.
b) When an individual has requested assistance on delivery, but the manager feels that assistance is not required, this decision along with the advice given to the employee will be recorded and associated with the daily traffic volume records. The employee can have access to this record and may ask to see it prior to commencement of his/her delivery. In addition to recording the employee’s request, the employee will be instructed to ring his/her local manager prior to a specified time or as soon as possible if full completion of delivery workload within the time allotted proves not to be possible.
