A newly hired career employee may elect to participate in TSP until the 61st day after the date of hire and in every subsequent open season. The waiting period of one to two open seasons continues to apply to the Agency Automatic (1 percent) Contribution and the Agency Matching Contribution for FERS employees. Using PostalEASE for EnrollmentEmployees who wish to make contribution elections must make them during the TSP open season. Employees must use the PostalEASE telephone system or the PostalEASE employee Web site to make contribution elections and cancellations. PostalEase's toll-free number is 877-4PS-EASE (877-477-3273). For web access through the Postal Service intranet, employees must go to http://blue.usps.gov, click on Employee Self-Service, and then click on PostalEASE. The employee must have his or her USPS personal identification number (PIN) to use PostalEASE (for information on PINs, see "USPS PIN" and "TSP PIN" below). Note: Personnel and employing offices must not distribute Form TSP-1, Thrift Savings Plan Election Form, to employees for making TSP open season elections. TSP-1 is no longer stocked at the MDC. Contacting TSP to Make a Fund Investment ElectionEmployees have three methods to make a fund investment election as follows: Web site: Go to the TSP Web site at www.tsp.gov. Telephone: Call the TSP ThriftLine at 504-255-8777. Mail: Mail Form TSP-50, Investment Allocation, to the TSP service office in New Orleans. Note: Personnel offices must not accept and cannot process completed Forms TSP-50. Form TSP-50 is not available from the TSP Web site. Form TSP-50 is available from the MDC. The relevant ordering information for Form TSP-50 is as follows: PSN: 7530-05-000-4305 The TSP Web site and ThriftLine are convenient methods for making fund investment elections and elections will take effect more quickly than using form TSP-50. To use the TSP Web site or TSP ThriftLine, participants must use their TSP PIN. Using Pins to Make TSP ElectionsTo make TSP elections, use two Pins: USPS PIN and TSP PIN. USPS PINThe Postal Service maintains the USPS PIN. Employees must use their USPS PIN to (1) begin a contribution percentage or a dollar amount election, or (2) change their current TSP contribution percentage or dollar amount, or (3) cancel TSP participation via PostalEASE. If employees do not know their USPS PIN, they must contact PostalEASE and do the following steps when prompted: (1) press 1 for PostalEASE; (2) enter their Social Security number; (3) enter their PIN, pause, and then press 2. Employees' USPS PIN will be mailed to their address of record, usually by the next business day. Note: When an employee requests his or her USPS PIN, the USPS PIN does not change (unlike the TSP PIN). The employee's old USPS PIN remains valid. (The USPS PIN is the same PIN employees use for telephone bidding and computerized bidding.) TSP PINThe TSP PIN is maintained by TSP. Employees must use their TSP PIN to make fund investment choices via the TSP Web site or the TSP ThriftLine. If employees are TSP participants and they do not know their TSP PIN, they have three methods for having a new TSP PIN mailed to their address of record: 1. Go to the TSP Web site at www.tsp.gov and select Account Access, or 2. Call the TSP ThriftLine at 504-255-8777, choose 2, enter their Social Security number, and then follow the instructions, or 3. Call the TSP service office at 504-255-6000. Once TSP has received an employee's TSP PIN request, his or her former TSP PIN is no longer valid. Direct Mailings to EmployeesCareer employees receive from the national level a direct mailing of leaflet TSP0403, TSP Open Season, and PostalEASE instructions at their mailing address of record during April. In addition to receiving TSP0403, newly eligible career employees receive from the national level a direct mailing of TSPBK08, Summary of the Thrift Savings Plan for Federal Employees, as well as a cover letter and PostalEASE instructions at their mailing address of record soon after their accession PS Form 50, Notification of Personnel Action, is processed. The return address for undeliverable TSP enrollment information for newly eligible employees is the employing office of record. The disposition of returned items is at the discretion of the district office or other administering office. Forwarding a returned enrollment package to an employee offers that employee an opportunity to submit a correct PS Form 1216, Employee's Current Mailing Address, available at the MDC. (Employees with access to web job bidding on the intranet should make address changes via the web. Other employees should return a completed PS Form 1216 to their local personnel office.) Ordering information for PS Form 1216 is as follows: PSN: 7530-02-000-7354 EligibilityAll career employees are eligible to make employee contribution elections this open season (subject to financial hardship withdrawal and cancellation exclusions). FERS employees hired before December 1, 2002, receive Agency Automatic (1 percent) Contributions and Agency Matching Contributions (as appropriate) beginning in June 2003. All employees who participated in TSP and cancelled their TSP contributions after December 31, 2002, are not eligible to participate in this TSP open season. They must wait for the TSP open season beginning October 15, 2003. Effective DatesThe windows of opportunity for employees to make TSP open season elections via PostalEASE, which automates the processing of TSP elections and the resulting effective dates, are as follows.
Because PostalEASE provides employees the ability to complete a TSP open season election without contacting the local personnel office and automates the processing of such elections, using PostalEASE should minimize the use of PS Form 6886, Thrift Savings Plan - Request for Retroactive Contributions. PS Form 6886 is used to correct administrative errors for TSP open season elections. Personnel offices have the authority to determine whether an administrative error has occurred. If an error has delayed a TSP open season election past the appropriate effective date, personnel offices and the employee must complete PS Form 6886 and submit it to the Eagan Accounting Service Center (ASC). The effective dates for employees' elections delayed due to an administrative error must be made retroactive to June 14 or June 28, 2003, depending on the date the employee would have otherwise entered his or her open season election via PostalEASE. Note: PS Form 6886, published in Postal Bulletin 21665 (3-31-88), must be reproduced locally as needed. Employees who do not have PS Form 6886 should contact their area office to ask for a copy. Personnel offices also have the authority to determine whether a belated open season election opportunity exists. In such instances, personnel must submit the employee's election to the Eagan ASC for processing, in accordance with administrative instructions provided to personnel offices regarding PostalEASE. Belated open season elections are not retroactive in most circumstances. Note: Processing deadlines and the closing date of this TSP open season require using only two pay periods as indicated above. Open Season MaterialsIn addition to the direct mailing of TSP information to employees, the MDC will automatically distribute residual supplies of the open season leaflet TSP0403, TSP Open Season, to Human Resources at district offices, area offices, processing and distribution centers/facilities (PDC/Fs), bulk mail centers (BMCs), airport mail centers/facilities (AMC/Fs), remote encoding centers, Office of Inspector General, Postal Inspection Service divisions, Headquarters, and selected Headquarters field units. Non-Open Season MaterialsMost of the current TSP publications and forms will be revised for the new TSP record-keeping system. Until notified, all offices must continue to use the current forms. We will publish an article in the Postal Bulletin giving information about new or revised forms when the new record- keeping system is implemented. Upon receipt of the newly printed forms, the MDC will complete its automatic distribution of all non-open season items to Human Resources at district offices, area offices, PDC/Fs, BMCs, AMC/Fs, remote encoding centers, Office of Inspector General, Postal Inspection Service divisions, Headquarters, and selected Headquarters field units. Ordering TSP ItemsOffices may place orders for new or revised TSP forms and/or publications with the MDC on an as-needed basis. It is not necessary to maintain a large stock of TSPBK08 because this booklet is mailed to each newly hired career employee from the national level. In all cases where the MDC will stock a new or revised TSP item, the MDC will make an initial distribution to Human Resources at installations as noted earlier. Offices may check the TSP Web site for new or revised items. Note: Form TSP-50 is not available from the TSP Web site. Participant StatementsEach employee with a TSP account will receive a participant statement from the TSP service office in April 2003. PublicityHuman Resources at district offices, area offices, PDC/Fs, BMCs, AMC/Fs, remote encoding centers, Office of Inspector General, Postal Inspection Service divisions, Headquarters, and selected Headquarters field units receive a supply of posters this open season from the MDC. Installations that receive the posters must widely distribute them and post them on bulletin boards. To assist in publicizing this TSP open season, all offices must post (1) the open season notice provided on page 8 of this Postal Bulletin through June 30, 2003, and (2) the current TSP fact sheet on bulletin boards. - Compensation,
PEDESTRIAN SAFETY Pedestrian or Driver - Be Careful, Be Cautious, Be SafeWASHINGTON - Letter carriers have lots of things to think about, but they should always be thinking about safety. Whether the carrier is a pedestrian or a driver, safety comes first. Thousands of pedestrians die each year in motor vehicle accidents in this country. About 80,000 are injured each year. Pedestrian deaths make up a third of traffic deaths among 3-9 year-olds, and about 20% among people 75 and older. Pedestrians account for about 35% of all motor vehicle fatalities in cities with populations over 1 million, so urban drivers (and pedestrians) need to be especially watchful. Pedestrian activity is highest in urban areas, where traffic is denser and recreation space is limited. Children under the age of 16 are most likely to be struck by motor vehicles. Pedestrians age 10-15 have the highest nonfatal injury rate. And elderly pedestrians - hit less frequently than children - are more likely to die after being struck. While intersections can be dangerous, the majority of pedestrian crashes occur at other locations, where vehicle speeds are higher and drivers are less likely to expect they'll need to stop. Letter carriers when they are pedestrians need to exercise caution and watch for traffic at the appropriate locations, intersections, and crosswalks. Letter carriers when they are drivers need to expect the unexpected and watch for pedestrians, especially in areas with high recreational activity and the presence of children. Weather can have an impact, too. Inclement weather can cause people to rush to get out of the elements, and make road conditions worse. On the other hand, good weather can improve visibility and road conditions, but also increase outdoor activity and pedestrian traffic. Pedestrian safety is up to pedestrians and drivers alike. Be careful out there. - Communication Integration, RURAL CARRIERS Equipment Maintenance Allowance Schedule for Rural RoutesIn accordance with provisions of Article 9, Section 2.J.3 of the Rural Carrier National Agreement, effective April 5, 2003 (pay period 9-03), the equipment maintenance allowance (EMA) will increase from 39.5 cents per mile to 40.5 cents per mile. The EMA is 40.5 cents per mile, or a minimum of $16.20 per day, whichever is greater. Auxiliary Rural Carriers, Rural Carrier Reliefs, Rural Carrier Associates, Rural Carrier Part-Time Flexibles, and Auxiliary AssistanceEmployees providing auxiliary assistance or serving auxiliary routes under provisions of Article 9, Section 2.J.5, receive an EMA of 40.5 cents per mile or $4.65 per hour, whichever is greater. This EMA should not exceed the amount provided in the special EMA for the route stops and miles. EMA Rate ScheduleThe EMA rate schedule on pages 7-8 supersedes all previously published EMA schedules for employees receiving EMA. - Collective Bargaining and Arbitration,Labor Relations, 4-3-03
