\nThe U.S. Postal Service is pushing its ability to hire low-paid City Carrier Assistants to the limit \u2013 and apparently beyond the limit.<\/p>\n

The 2011 contract<\/a><\/strong> that created the non-career position capped the number of CCAs in each district at 15% of the total number of full-time career city carriers — plus another 8,000 nationwide to allow “flexible windows which may be necessary to develop and provide new products and services.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The report<\/a> <\/strong>shows that USPS had 164,582 City Carriers on its rolls in April. Adding 15% of that number plus another 8,000 yields an apparent cap of 32,687 CCAs. But the same report says the Postal Service had 36,074 CCAs.<\/p>\n
