Now, OPF documents are available online and have become \u201ceOPFs.\u201d Employees can go to LiteBlue at any time to review their files. Each eOPF is a secure and encrypted file, available only to employees by using their employee ID number and USPS PIN, and to HR professionals with an official need to view them.<\/p>\n<p>USPS always has encouraged employees to check their records for accuracy. Employees should review their eOPFs to make sure documents are up-to-date. Accurate records will make processing personnel actions such as transfers, promotions or retirements easier. Employees who need to change, remove or add documents must complete a PS Form 8043 and submit it to their district HR Generalist.<\/p>\n<p>Disciplinary documents only can be removed according to provisions of collective bargaining agreements, the ELM 650 appeals process or as a result of an EEO or Merit System Protection Board decision. Documents placed in an eOPF by another federal agency cannot be removed.<\/p>\n<p>Employees who cannot access their eOPFs using LiteBlue should notify their area Human Resources analyst, district HR Local Services, or HQ Corporate Personnel.<\/p>\n<p>Source: USPS<\/p>\n<p><em>Please Note: Postal Employee Network cannot answer questions regarding your personnel folder or its contents.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s all yours\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0eOPF: My official personnel folder Where can employees go \u2014 anytime, anywhere \u2014 to look at their official records?
