Shawnna Bolick, Ariz. state Rep. is calling for improvements in postal workers’ working conditions after a mail carrier showed how hot mail trucks get by cooking a steak on his dashboard.
A state representative is calling for improvements in postal workers’ “deplorable” working conditions seeing a mail carrier demonstrate how hot mail trucks get by cooking a steak on his dashboard.
According to Bolick’s letter, stifling mail trucks present a widespread issue, and “quite a few” other USPS employees have also been impacted by the heat — some have been “sent to the emergency room to deal with heat stroke and heat exhaustion,” with a few carriers even getting hospitalized for several days.
Bolick recommends “moving up” morning start times in Arizona to allow carriers to work later in the day, which would help avoid afternoon heat. However, she stresses she is aware that this is not a state issue, and wants the “workers in Arizona enduring the extreme heat” to know that she is trying to elevate the issue to a national level.
