Postal Service Policy on Workplace Harassment

Effective June 10, 2014, the Postal Service™ reissued its Postal Service Policy on Workplace Harassment.

This policy:

n Includes a reference to military service in accordance with the Veterans Opportunity to Work (VOW) to Hire Heroes Act signed into law November 21, 2011, which expands protections against workplace dis­crimination based on military status under the Uni­formed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) of 1994. An employer’s anti-harassment policy must prohibit all forms of harass­ment that violate federal anti-discrimination laws to include military service.

n Reaffirms the Postal Service’s commitment to pro­viding a work environment free of harassment.

n Supersedes MOP DD-10-04-2010, Postal Service Policy on Workplace Harassment.

The Postal Service Policy on Workplace Harassment is available on the Postal Service PolicyNet website:

n Go to http://blue.usps.gov.

n Under “Essential Links” in the left hand column, click PolicyNet.

n Click on MOPS.
