The question in this grievance is whether management violates Articles 21 and 13 of the National Agreement by utilizing an employee who was reinstated under the Rehabilitation Program to perform certain duties in the cited office. It is the position of the USPS that the duty assignment of the rehabilitated employee was established under the provisions of the Rehabilitation Program. This program was agreed upon between the parties at the national level. The duty assignment in question is a combination of various duties that had been performed by several employees on an irregular basis. We believe that this assignment is fair and equitable. Accordingly, management is not in violation of the National Agreement; therefore, this grievance is denied. This document contains two Article 21 related issues; a Maintenance Craft Step 4 Settlement Agreement on page 1 and a Clerk Craft USPS Position Letter on page 2.
