343.131 General Corporate Relations provides guidance to other Headquarters functions, area offices, and field offices in planning, producing, and using audiovisual aids. 343.132 Requests Requests for audiovisual services must be submitted to Corporate Relations sufficiently in advance of the date needed to determine whether the work may be done in-house or must be referred to a contractor. Because production requirements vary, appropriate due dates are determined by consulting with the manager of ECCS, who approves requests and provides the services or recommends contact with Purchasing so that services can be procured from sources outside the Postal Service. 343.133 Funding All audiovisual services performed for other postal units by Corporate Relations are provided on a reimbursable basis at the discretion of Corporate Relations. 343.14 Video Focus Corporate Relations provides a monthly 10-minute video news program called Video Focus for viewing by any employee.
Stories focus on groups and individuals who are helping to achieve corporate goals.
343.21 General Workroom posters are used for communicating management objectives, policies, and programs to employees. Corporate Relations plans, designs, and produces workroom posters, and coordinates all such posters except those initiated locally for local display. Any posters proposed for wider than local use must be reviewed and approved by Corporate Relations to ensure that they meet the guidelines issued by Corporate Identity. The originating Headquarters function provides posters to field installations for display in workroom areas, including swing rooms and cafeterias. Posters are dated for time of display and shipped sufficiently in advance of the display date for local distribution to appropriate post offices, stations, and branches.
