Canada Post – “Good, but not THAT good.”

Pros

The pay is okay and being a letter-carrier you are usually done work reasonably early. As a letter-carrier you
work M-F and don't work evenings and weekends or stats. If you chose to work inside, you can work other
shifts including graveyards if that suits you. The benefits package is okay but is getting worse and worse
each contract negotiation. It's nice to work outside when the weather is nice, and it's also nice not having
someone supervise your every move. Good exercise. Pension.

Cons

The company is really not friendly towards its employees and is making the job more and more difficult for
us, increasing workloads without paying heed to an increased number of injuries. They also harass you
everytime you use a sick day, despite having 10 days in our contract. There are also other issues
such as dog bites, bad weather and lots of slipping and falling injuries.

Advice to Senior Management

That we are human beings, not donkeys. The "clean floor policy" make look good on the books, but is
ridiculous. Also, people get sick, that's a fact, and we don't need to be harassed. Happy employees are
healthy employees.
