NRLCA Signs Pre-Arbitration Settlement Related to Locked Mail Boxes

The issue in this grievance is whether rural carriers are entitled to additional time when they make more than one pass to a locked mail box. The parties agree that a locked mail box should have a slot large enough to accommodate the customer’s normal daily volume of mail. The parties further agree that there may be instances during a mail count when additional time is warranted for making more than one pass to a compliant mailbox dependent on the particular fact circumstances.

    • Unless you have 98% of your route that have these boxes. 5.67 volume factor. This does matter to those who filed. One day you also may have a route that has these boxes. This is a time factor. And with all the freebies we now give away. I for one am glad to have someone pursue time factor issues!

  1. some of these answers they give are ridiculous . doesn’t even really address it . doesn’t say how much or who figures it . what about the pkg that would of fit but no longer fit because the box is locked
