-
Every vacancy must be immediately reported to the Secretary. When a vacancy is caused by resignation (and of this one clear month’s notice should be given) the letter of resignation must accompany the report.
-
Any officer who is about to marry is required to advise the Secretary of the circumstance. An advice is also necessary after an officer has been actually married.
-
Increases to the salaries of cadets, telegraph messengers, &c., who are in receipt of less than £100 per annum must be applied for by the officers entitled to receive them. It is only in exceptional cases that such are shown in the general authorities. Every application must state the salary being drawn, and the officer’s place and number in the Departmental List at the date of application, and must be accompanied by a report as to his conduct and capabilities. Cadets will not be promoted to the Sixth Class until they can show a good style of handwriting. (Read here Rule T. 379.)
-
Cadets entitled to promotion to the Sixth Class, under Classification Regulation 31, Subsections (8) and (9), must submit an application at the proper time. No promotion from the Cadet Class to the Sixth Class will be made unless the head of the office at which the cadet is stationed certifies that the cadet has passed the required examinations and has earned promotion. (See Rule T. 309A.)
-
Both postal and telegraph cadets, before being promoted to the Sixth Class, will be required to pass an examination in general postal knowledge, including speed and accuracy in the sorting and stamping of letters. Chief Postmasters are supplied with the necessary forms and instructions. In every case in which an application for promotion of a Postal cadet under Classification Regulation 31 (8) is forwarded to the Secretary, Chief Postmasters are to understand that the certificate that the cadet has passed the required examination refers to the examination above mentioned.
-
Chief Postmasters and Officers in Charge who have on their staffs or under their control officers to whom loans have been made from the Fine Account must, when making payment to those officers of any arrears of increment to salary, see that the amount is at once paid in towards reduction of the loan, if, as is usually the case, such payment of arrears is provided for in the form of agreement.
-
In the selection of telegraph messengers, although a Fifth Standard pass is sufficient to qualify them, preference should always be given to youths who have obtained certificates of competency, and still further to those who have obtained certificates
