Postmaster General and Leadership of Union and Management Associations Form Joint Task Force on Service Performance

The following Joint Statement was issued by:
Postmaster General and Chief Executive Officer Louis DeJoy
Fred Rolando, President of the National Association of Letter Carriers
Paul Hogrogian, National President of the National Postal Mail Handlers Union
Daniel Heins, National President of the United Postmasters and Managers of America
Mark Dimondstein, President, American Postal Workers Union
Ronnie Stutts, President National Rural Letter Carriers’ Association
Brian Wagner, President National Association of Postal Supervisors

“Recognizing that issues in certain facilities across the country continue to hamper service performance, we have come together to form a National Joint Task Force on Service Performance to identify and craft solutions to improve service at specific locations within the network. Members of the Joint Task Force will work together on making necessary changes to strengthen service reliability, share best practices and stay vigilant to any emerging issues.

The National Task Force will also ensure resources are allocated, lines of communication are open and concerns that are not resolved locally are escalated quickly.

Maintaining strong service performance is a process, not a destination; through weather, natural disasters and a holiday season in the midst of a pandemic. Mail never stops flowing through our system. If bottlenecks occur it can have a cascading impact on the network. Addressing issues early can make all the difference.”

The National Task Force held their first meeting on March 22.

Book Manufacturing Outlook: Time for Clarity and Communication (piworld.com)

The book printing market is experiencing high levels of demand and a continued resurgence among consumers for physical books. While a good problem to have, it could be a problem nonetheless as we move into 2023. Kevin Spall, senior VP at Scholastic, offers a perspective on this from the publishing side, explaining: “Publishers are full, having overbought because demand was high and capacity was low. We bought inventory to be prepared. And now, as demand softens, we still have inventory. The need to reprint is less certainly than it was a year ago when the demand was just starting to spike, and those are not issues that are going to go away quickly.” Demand has soared in 2022, according to the Book Manufacturers Institute’s (BMI) "State of the Book Industry 2022” report. The printed book market remains on an upward trajectory, continuing to build on the momentum of 2020, when COVID-19 kept people at home and interest in reading surged.
