120 Structures and Staffing

121 Overview

The basic organizational structure of the Postal Service is comprised of Headquarters, areas, districts, P&DCs, and Post Offices. Some units are uniquely designed because of their specialized nature; however, units that perform essentially identical functions are typically standardized. The primary goal of the Postal Service is to standardize structures to the greatest extent possible. When special operating conditions or service requirements arise, it is appropriate to make adjustments in organizational structures and staffing.
