Re: APWU#HQTG20110463;
Unencumbered/Unassigned Regulars



Dear Mr. Tulino:  
   In accordance with the provisions of Article 15, Section 2 and 4, of the Collective Bargaining Agreement, the American Postal Workers Union is initiating a Step 4 dispute regarding the scheduling of unencumbered/unassigned full-time employees.
  The Postal Service has issued instructions to the field that employees in the Clerk and MVS crafts converted from PTF or PTR to FTR on August 27,2011 in accordance with the 2010-2015 CBA may become unencumbered/unassigned employees with non-traditional work schedules.
  Article 7.1.A.I requires that full-time employees "shall be assigned to regular schedules consisting of five (5) eight (8) hour days in a service week."
 Article 8.1 states that "(t)he work week for full- time regulars shall be forty (40) hours per week, eight (8) hours per day within ten (10) consecutive hours.. (or) within nine (9) consecutive hours ..." in offices with more than 100 full-time employees.
  Article 8.2.C provides that a full-time regular's "normal work week is five (5)service days, each consisting of eight (8) hours ... "  
   The Non-Traditional Full-Time (NTFf) Duty Assignments MOU contained in the 2010 CBA provides the rules for creation and posting of NTFf duty
assignments when operationally necessary.
  The MOU does not provide for unencumbered /unassigned NTFf schedules
It is requested that you or your designee contact my office at (202) 842-4273 in order to schedule a meeting to discuss this important issue pursuant to Article 15, Section 2 and 4 of the CBA

Re: APWU#HQTG2011 0466; Consecutive Days Off
Dear Mr. Tulino:
  In accordance with the provisions of Article 15, Section 2 and 4, of the
Collective Bargaining Agreement, the American Postal Workers Union is initiating a Step 4 dispute regarding consecutive days off.
  The Postal Service has issued instructions to the field that NTFT Duty Assignments in Mail Processing (Function 1) and MVS in 200 man-year offices may have work weeks with less than two consecutive days off.
  Article 8.2.D states that "(i)n postal installations which have 200 or more man years of employment in the regular work force, career employees in mail processing operations, transportation and vehicle maintenance facility operations, will have consecutive scheduled days off, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties at the local level."
  The Non-Traditional Full-Time (NTFT) Duty Assignments MOU in the 201015 CBA states that "(e)mployees occupying FTR duty assignments (traditional and NTFT) in postal installations which have 200 or more man years of employment in the regular work force, career employees in mail processing
operations, transportation and vehicle maintenance facility operations, will have consecutive scheduled days off, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties at the local level."
  In the Non-Traditional Work Schedules Task Force MOU the parties agreed on the concept of the "creation of a 'full-time' duty assignments that have nontraditional scheduling" The parties specifically agreed that these "nontraditional work schedules may include those with less than 40 hours or
less than 5 days a week, or more than 8 hours a day, split shifts, etc."
  Nothing in the collective bargaining agreement permits the establishment of duty assignments with either split or single days off for career employees in mail processing operations, transportation and vehicle maintenance facility operations in postal installations which have 200 or more man years of employment in the regular work force.
  It is requested that you or your designee contact my office at (202) 842-4273 in order to schedule
a meeting to discuss this important issue pursuant to Article 15, Section 2 and 4 of the CBA.
