Macon-Zebulon carriers achieve safe million miles


Two Macon-Zebulon carriers have received a million mile award from Manager Post Office Operations Angela Collier.

James D. Joyner Jr: started as a Mail Handler in January 1980. He then switched to the carrier craft in November 1980 and has worked in Macon his entire career.

Denise Mays as a Clerk in October 1982 and then switched to the carrier craft in March 1986.  She is a City Carrier Instructor and has worked in Macon her entire career.

The Million Mile Club is the National Safety Council’s highest safety honor among professional drivers and recognizes drivers who have driven more than one million miles or more than 30 years without a preventable accident.

The United States Postal Service and the National Safety Council have teamed up to promote and ensure the safety and health of the USPS workforce nationwide.

As a long-standing member of the National Safety Council, the United States Postal Service has established an agreement with the Council that entitles all facilities to take advantage of member benefits in an effort to prevent unintentional injury and illness.

Eligible postal employee participants of the Safe Driver Award Program include those who have a normal daily assignment that involves the driving of a motor vehicle for official business use, and who have not had their driving privilege revoked or suspended.
