Vermont NAPUS President Jane Draper Help Us Help You

From experience Postmasters have found that most financial issues have been denied as not falling under Recourse. Budget items are between the Associate Offices and the District. Some examples of these budget items are LLV repair costs, shared PTF clerk travel expenses, cleaning contracts, earned hours in CSV or SOV being denied, and carrier hours. Financial Resolution Log Process Any staffing issue needs to start with a Hiring Request form. Look on the NNE District homepage and Departments for the process. Each request process is different depending on the position. Some scenarios that we are currently experiencing are Postmasters short on staff and working every Saturday.
