• Conversion Opportunities: The USPS will offer 50 Part-Time Regular employees’ conversion to full-time positions.
• Financial Compensation: The USPS will distribute a total of $15 million to Maintenance Craft Part-Time Regular employees, covering the Fiscal Years 2018-2024, which they will pay in two installments. The USPS will make the first payment no later than December 31, 2024.
• Future Conversions: Future Part-Time Regulars may be eligible for conversion to full-time positions around March of each year.
• Resolution of Grievances: This settlement resolves all outstanding local, regional, and national grievances and disputes from 2018 to 2023.
