Handling Mail

• Treat every piece of mail as if it were your own.
• You don’t want your personal property damaged or delayed and neither do our customers. They view each employee as an extension of the Postal Service.
• When customers put a letter in a mailbox or hand it to a postal employee, they expect their mail to arrive expeditiously at its destination in the same shape it was sent.

Handling the mail with care every step of the way avoids damage claims and customer complaints.

And that’s smart business.

Any Port Will Not Do

Stop and think before you connect. Plugging personal electronic devices — such as smart phones, thumb drives or e-cigarettes — into a Postal Service computer’s USB port is against USPS policy.

These five tips can help protect you and USPS:

• Use a wall outlet at an approved location (such as break room).
• Consider a portable charger.
• Avoid public charging stations (airports for example).
• Plug only USPS-approved devices into postal equipment.
• Report unauthorized devices connected to USPS equipment.

Practicing smart cybersecurity is smart business.
