Whose job is it to: give accountable mail to carriers; to clear the carriers when they return; to check the undeliverable bulk business mail (UBBM); and to perform other allied duties?
The M-39 Handbook contains language indicating that clerks should be scheduled to perform these functions. It says the supervisor’s responsibilities are to: “Review mail undeliverable as addressed (UAA) to identify errors and maximize efficient handling procedures at delivery units and at Computerized Forwarding System (CFS) units.” [Emphasis added.] The regular and routine disposal of undeliverable bulk mail should be performed by clerks. This is not considered a “distribution task” and should not be performed by postmasters or supervisors. Postmasters also should not be doing Webbats (P.O. Box record-keeping on the web), bulk mail acceptance, or other ancillary duties. Contact your union steward if you have questions about this.
