Reversion / Maximization in 1.6.B. offices
Article 7.3.B. requires the Service to maximize full-time and minimize part-time in 1.6.B. offices. This is an ongoing obligation. Automatically reverted full-time positions in small offices upon the retirement of a clerk “triggers” a violation of 7.3.B. where the reason for reversion (Article 37) is to gain “flexibility.”
In this case the only clerk in the office worked the window exclusively for 40 years! Upon his retirement, they hired 2 PTFs working one 3 days a week, the other 2 days a week to cover the Monday through Friday full-time window position. Management cannot revert a position on paper when the duties still exist and are assigned to PTFs for flexibility.
