The issue in this grievance is whether management properly selected and trained employees for temporary assignment to "best qualified" positions at AMF Kennedy in New York. It is our position that no national interpretive issue involving the terms and conditions of the National Agreement is fairly presented in this case. However, inasmuch as the union did not agree, the following represents the decision of the Postal Service on the particular fact circumstances involved. It is the position of the Postal Service that the disputed selection of employees for training in "best qualified'' positions is being done in accordance with Article 25.4 which provides the method for higher level assignment selection. Accordingly, the grievance is denied.
