Postal Service Employee Development Programs Need Better Management.

Abstract

The objective of this review was to determine if management controls over programs which provide training or developmental experiences to postal employees should be strengthened. The findings suggest that (1) program instructions were not always followed; and (2) some programmatic changes are needed. Weaknesses found are described: Some postal career executive candidates received no developmental training and experiences; Candidate lists for officer-in-charge assignments were not properly maintained or used; Employee performance evaluations were not always prepared; and Some significant program costs were not accumulated.
