Ford's Focus
Welcome to the relaunch of News & Views, which will come out every Thursday.
You will also notice some buttons on the side that you can click for computer help, to report a hazard or waste, or just to make a suggestion about OPP or News & Views.
The most exciting section is called "Up for Grabs" where you will be able to advertise items to your co-workers FOR FREE. You just need to provide your name, department, and PSU e-mail.
Going forward, ALL non-emergency announcements for upcoming events, raffles, policy changes, new employees, raffles, etc. should be e-mailed here to be included in the Thursday newsletter.
See you next week!
