Postal Service HR system moving to the Web, kiosks
July 25, 2006
The Associated Press: The U.S. Postal Service is replacing dozens of unconnected human-resources systems nationwide with one that will allow its 700,000 employees to make benefit and payroll changes over the Internet or at the 519 kiosks located at postal facilities around the country. The PostalPEOPLE system is rolling out in phases to replace a hodgepodge of more than 70 systems used by 3,800 HR managers across the United States. All postal service employees will have access to basic functions by the end of October.
