What kind of benefits does a City Carrier Assistant have?

You do not become a regular after a year as a CCA. If a regular retires you can apply for their position.

Way more than an RCA, but still not the good ones you hear about. You do go regular after 1 year though, so if you can hold out that long then you are set.

Depends on the contract in force when the employee is hired. Specifics can be found at the NALC.org website.

CCA came in to being after I left Grove City Post office. Galloway Post office was all clerk and rural carriers. CCA's earn limited annual leave/sick leave. Their salaries are not equal to regular carriers and have no assigned routes.

Medical, Retirement, disability

YOU HAVE TO PASS A 3 MONTH PROBATION PERIOD THEN AFTER A YEAR YOU ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A WEEK OFF AND BENEFITS, BUT YOU AREN'T ALLOWED A DAY OFF BEFORE A YEAR OF WORKING THERE. MEANING YOU CANT REQUEST YOUR DAY OFF, IT IS GIVEN AND YOU CANT CALL OUT SICK
