==== MOU | ==== MOU Role of the Inspection Service in Labor Relations Matters ==== | ||
The parties | The parties recognize the role of the Postal Inspection Service in the operation of the Postal Service and its responsibility to provide protection to our employees, security to the mail and service to our customers.</br> | ||
Postal Inspection Service policy does not condone disrespect by Inspectors in dealing with an individual. The Postal Inspection Service has an obligation to comply fully with the letter and spirit of the National Agreement between the United States Postal Service and the National Postal Mail Handlers Union, and will not interfere in the dispute resolution process as it relates to Articles 15 and 16.</br> | |||
The parties further acknowledge the necessity of an independent review of the facts by management prior to the issuance of disciplinary action, emergency procedures, indefinite suspensions, enforced leave or administrative actions. Inspectors will not make recommendations, provide opinions, or attempt to influence management personnel regarding a particular disciplinary action, as defined above.</br> | |||
Nothing in this document is meant to preclude or limit Postal Service management from reviewing Inspection Service documents in deciding to issue discipline. | |||
