Award on Use of "Kelly Girls"

A national-level award by Arbitrator Das on the Postal Service’s use of temporary agency employees. The arbitrator ruled that Article 7.1 .B does not prohibit the Postal Service from using “Kelly Girls” or other similar-type temporary agency employees as a supplemental work force, provided they are counted as casuals and are subject to the limits on employment of casuals set forth in Article 7.1 .B. (USPS #Q90C-6E-C 94046800; 1/31/2003)
