Hidden camera crew trails 'contracted' letter carrier - By Don McIntosh, Workday Minnesota
BEAVERTON, Ore. - Union leaders warned management this would happen. If the U.S. Postal Service contracted out mail delivery in places like Beaverton, Ore., there would be accountability problems and breaches of mail security, said National Association of Letter Carriers officers like L.C. Hansen, president of Branch 82 in Portland.
And that's what Hansen found in June when she and a hidden camera crew followed a Beaverton postal service 'contractor' for several days.
Under pressure from the government, the Postal Service Board of Governors, named by President Bush, has pushed USPS managers to privatize new delivery routes in urban areas, as well as continuing them in rural areas.------------------------------------------- posted 6:14 AM :: reference link ::
