A “Reduction In Force” (RIF) process occurs when the Postal Service --- as part of reorganization similar to the one scheduled for later this week --- must demote or separate career or certain non-career employees in a competitive area.
To help employees understand how organizational change process works, including RIF, the Postal Service has prepared a list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) that address the process in general terms. The FAQs address such terms as “RIF avoidance-minimization,” notification procedures and “preference eligible” employees.
To learn more about these and other terms, as well as how the organizational change process works, go to the Organizational Changes website, easily accessed from Blue and LiteBlue. In addition to Organizational Change/RIF FAQs, employees can find information on retirement — including Voluntary Early Retirement (VER) — and the Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
Updates can and often do occur. Employees are encouraged to periodically visit the website to make sure they’re up to date on organizational change/RIF procedures as well as the other topics covered.
