Medford Post Office Takes Action on Program for Negotiation on Conditions The Medford post office has taken official action to imple ment the post office depart ment's new program for nego tiation and consultation on grievances, working condi tions, personnel practices and other related matters, acting postmaster Jack Eidswick has reported. The move, developed by the postal service under Presi dent Kennedy's Executive Or der 10988 of Jan. 17, 1962, of ficially reognizes federal em ployee organizations for the first time. Recognition is based on re sults of the largest nation wide labor management elec tion, held June IS to July 1, 1962, in which 451,000 postal employees participated. Of ficial results were issued to each post office by the post office department in Wash ington, Eidswick noted. Results Locally Here are the results at the local post office: Exclusive recognition of United Federation of Postal Clerks, National Association of Letter Carriers, and Nation al Rural Letter Carriers' as sociation. "Exclusive" recognition was acquired by employee organ izations having a clear ma jority of the vote in a partic ular craft unit under pre scribed voting procedures, he aaid. The postmaster will ne gotiate with these organiza tions, holding regular meet ings and working out written agreements on matters affect ing all employees in the craft unit represented regardless of employees' membership stat us. National agreements give local employee organizations the right to deal with the post master on local working con ditions, personnel practices and in resolving interprets tions under the local agree ments, Eidswick said Reiterate Order At the same lime, the Na tional agreements reiterate Executive Order 10988 s ban against strikes and discrimi nation. They set forth manage ment's prerogatives which arc nol subject to negotiation. iuch as the budget, assignment oi personnel, work technology or any matter determined by Congress, such as pay rates. "ostal management, under the Executive Order, also re tains the right to direct em- ployees. to hire, promote, transfer, suspend or separate employees in accord with Civ il Service regulations, he noted A report of the President s task force on Employee-Management Relations in the Fed eral Service, submitted to the President Nov 30. 1961. be fore the issuance ol Executive Order 10988. said: "represen tatives of the employee ganizations made it clear they are aware of these limitations and are quite content to nego tiate within them." Member of Task Force Postmaster General J. Ed ward Day was a member of the task force. The employees of the Med ford post office, now receiving official recognition at the lo cal level for their employee organizations, join with em ployees in more than 30,000 post offices throughout the na tion in acquiring official rec ognition under the President's labor-management order for federal employees, Eidswick pointed out. l 'Penney's) A yjJif t0PPin9 !yyVy ol embroidery... i Ys smy forecast an & ( .Jfff dasy summer in niml DACRON' jUfv BATISTE!
