VMF Jobs and Authorization to Hire

Share this article

Some USPS managers are reported to be claiming they are not authorized to hire or post the duty assignments. However, a Sept. 7 notice [PDF] to Area Operations Vice Presidents about posting vehicle maintenance positions states:

"In compliance with the American Postal Workers Union (APWU) collective bargaining agreement, the attached 740 vehicle maintenance positions have been authorized to post and fill in accordance with the Motor Vehicle Craft bid process. Duty assignments not filled through the bid process shall be filled through the normal hiring process. Deviations of the quantity and level of positions may not be made without approval by Headquarters."
