The Rural Route Evaluation Dispute Process will be used to address disputes where the assigned carrier has identified potential errors. Local management and the carrier should discuss and work together to submit the necessary documentation needed to resolve the issue.
Listed on the attached pages are some common issues being disputed and the recommended documentation needed at the very minimum that should accompany the dispute.
Please remember that each item being disputed should be on its own dispute form along with the necessary documentation. The dispute and the documentation will be sent to the Manager of Labor Relations at the district level by the Postmaster and to the NRLCA District Representative.
Only clear legible copies should be provided to both parties. Pictures are unacceptable. Hard copy is requested.
