A status report on the USPS Delivering for America initiative says the program has stabilized the workforce and has improved hiring, career development and working conditions.
“The organization aims to create a stable and empowered workforce through retention, improved employee experience, workforce development, and succession planning. We continue to fill supervisory vacancies and modernize the hiring process. Enhancements to the employee experience involve improving orientation, and better engaging employees during their first 90 days on the job,” says the report, issued at about the one-third mark of that 10-year plan.
It cites developments including the conversion of some 190,000 “pre-career” employees to career status and reductions in supervisory vacancies from 15 percent to 6.4 percent over 2021-2024.
