Sorting and Distribution of Priority Mail
Clerk Craft Members:
Based on the Step 3 settlement of a crossing craft violation grievance filed in 1999, which involved a twenty (20) year odyssey, the APWU has requested that all sorting and distribution of priority mail work being performed by mail handlers cease and desist immediately and that the work be assigned to clerks. The request was submitted to the Oakland P&DC Senior Plant Manager.

Deployment of the USS in the Oakland P&DC
Clerk Craft Members:
I have been advised by Sr. Operations Support Specialist, In-Plant-Support Shu “Kelvin” Zhang that the deployment of the Universal Sorting System (USS) in the Oakland P&DC will be sometime in August 2019. APBS #1 will be removed from the Oakland P&DC starting July 12, 2019.
According to Zhang, the deployment of the USS will not have an adverse impact on the clerk craft. Zhang also stated that the Priority Sacks Operation will not be phased out.
