[QUOTE="GuyinBrown, post: 262004, member: 9444"] Pretty sure you're right. Under part time wages ( Article 22, section 5, part C ), the language actually says that "[I][B]The wage rates and increases provided in (a) and (b) shall be a minimum[/B][/I]". They can pay more if minimum wage is above what they've agreed to in the contract. If the $8.50 starting wage is as much of a problem as everyone here seems to believe, and UPS finds itself unable to find anyone willing to start at $8.50 an hour with the promise of excellent benefits and substantial raises ( should they decide to remain with the company on a long term basis) this would also allow them to raise the starting wage at any point during the contract.
