[QUOTE="BigUnionGuy, post: 2092246, member: 4992"] Wrong. Wrong on both counts. [B] ARTICLE 44. OVER 70 POUND SERVICE PACKAGE HANDLING [/B] The parties agree that the health and safety of the employees are of the utmost importance. The Employer agrees that UPS management will not insist that any unsafe action be undertaken and the Union agrees to encourage its members to cooperate in effectuating the handling, pick-up and delivery of parcels without exposing themselves to safety hazards. Section 1. On Area Package Handling No employee shall be required to handle any over 70 pound packages alone if it is the employee’s good faith belief that such handling would be a safety hazard to herself or himself. In such cases, the Employer shall provide whichever of the following is requested in good faith by the employee in handling over 70 pound packages: 1. [U]Another bargaining unit employee for assistance[/U], or 2. Appropriate lifting/handling devices, or 3. Another bargaining unit employee and an appropriate lifting/handling device for handling, pick-up or delivery circumstances that require both bargaining unit help and an appropriate lifting/handling device.
