Misuse of a Postal Voyager Card

Our Customers Don’t Want to Fill Up Your Tank

Believe it or not, employees have done this in the past.
Using a Postal Service Voyager credit card to fuel your own vehicle is a misuse of government property.
Is it worth your job?

Using a Postal Service Voyager credit card to purchase the Postal Service’s gas rather than your own is smart business.

Contact the Ethics Office (ethics.help@usps.gov) for guidance.

Workroom and Restricted Area Access

Who goes there?

Do your part to make sure facility security measures are followed.
Access to workroom and restricted areas is limited to authorized on-duty postal employees and authorized contractors. Anybody else must have legitimate business on the floor and be escorted.
Prevent unauthorized individuals from entering restricted areas. This includes off-duty craft employees. Question anyone who doesn’t have an ID or escort.

Keeping employees, customers, and the mail safe and secure is a USPS priority.

And that’s smart business.

Counseling employees

When you care enough, you CARE.

Counseling At Risk Employees — CARE — is designed to engage employees in accident prevention. The program uses accident statistics, root cause analysis and a participant action plan intended to eliminate future accidents. The objective is to reduce employee accidents through discussions, retraining, coaching and recognition of safety hazards.

Implementing CARE will reduce the number of accidents, escalating costs, employee injuries/illnesses and lost productivity by involving employees in safety awareness and accident prevention.

And that’s smart safety!

Protective eyewear

The eyes have it.

Protect your vision at work — always wear appropriate protective eyewear. If you get something in your eye, avoid rubbing it. Lift the upper eyelid and blink repeatedly to allow tears to flush out the particle. If that doesn’t work, get medical attention. If you get hit in the eye, apply a cold compress to reduce pain and swelling — but be careful not to apply pressure. Visit an eye doctor or emergency department if there’s pain or your sight is affected.

Following safety procedures and knowing emergency eye care can prevent injuries that damage the eye or cause loss of vision.

And that’s smart safety!
