Mail Service Courier Workload Structuring System (MSCWSS)

October 22, 2024

The System

The system (MSCWSS) determines and regulates the laying out, structuring and verification of the Mail Service Courier functions.

The system is based on the same principles as those that govern the Letter Carrier Route Measurement System. It outlines the procedures for determining a proper time allowance for each of the elements involved.

In addition, the System is designed to establish a fair and equitable workload for each Route.
