This section requires that before assigning a new position to the most 
appropriate national craft bargaining unit, the Postal Service shall consult with 
the NPMHU. Additionally, it contains standards that shall be used in assigning 
new positions to the appropriate unit and provides that the NPMHU will be 
promptly notified of the decision as to which bargaining unit a new position has 
been assigned. Any dispute regarding the assignment is grievable at the 
national level within 30 days from the date the union receives notification of the 
assignment.
In the Letter of Intent Re References to Union, Craft or Bargaining Unit, which is 
reprinted in the CIM after Article 39, the parties have agreed that the Postal 
Service will continue to inform the NPMHU of all new positions whether or not the 
positions are within the craft unit represented by the NPMHU.</div></div>
