Secure Workplace

If You See Something, Say Something

It takes every one of us to maintain a safe and secure work environment.
Pay attention to your surroundings.
Report any suspicious activity.

Nothing is more important than keeping you safe.

And that’s smart business.

Use of Postal Property

Use Postal Property for Postal Work. Period

A Postal Service employee has a duty to protect and conserve postal property.

A Postal Service employee may not use postal property or allow its use for other than authorized purposes.

For example, you may not use your postal mobile telephone to view pornographic materials or your postal laptop to conduct work for another employer.

When you protect and conserve postal property, you contribute to the Postal Service’s financial success.

And that’s smart business.

Ergonomic awareness

Change it up.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, about one-third of all occupational injuries and illnesses are due to overexertion or repetitive motion. Your posture, movement and work station are important to your physical wellness.

Discomfort, pain and injury in the workplace can be prevented. Work in comfortable postures — any position held for a long time will become uncomfortable. Work in a variety of positions throughout the day — it’s easy to adjust office equipment. Use your muscles efficiently — it takes less effort to tap a computer key than to thump it hard.

Increased ergonomics awareness, training and hazard reduction will reduce injuries, lost work time and associated cost.

And that’s smart safety!

Health assessment

How’s your health?

A health assessment is a great tool for knowing how to answer that question. It evaluates your personal lifestyle and habits to identify unhealthy behaviors and risks that you can change to live a better life. Some health plans offer a free online health assessment, and many give you an incentive, like a gift card or discount, for completing the assessment.

More information about health assessments can be found on the Wellness link on MyHR on the Blue intranet.

And that’s smart safety!
