UPS instructs you to walk at a brisk pace. They do not tell you to run, therefore why would you?
A"brisk pace" is so subjective!!! I just cannot move as fast as I could 22 years ago. And I sure can't move as fast as a "runner" who is at least 15 years younger than me. And since my surgery and rehab I am still on the mend and thus even slower. I get the job done everyday without help and without complaint.
When I was hired in 86' the pace was 5ft per second or two long strides, which seemed about right for a steady walk pace.A brisk work pace is defined as 3 ft a second.
Just for future reference, is that a written policy? If so where is it written?A brisk work pace is defined as 3 ft a second.

According to my calculations "brisk" outside walks are:A brisk work pace is defined as 3 ft a second.
According to my calculations "brisk" outside walks are:
5 - 25 ft. = 2.77 ft. per second.
26 - 50 ft. = 3.125 ft. per second.
51 - 100 ft. = 3.571 ft. per second.
101 - 200 ft. = 3.846 ft. per second.
Over 200 ft. = 3.86 ft. per second and the farther you walk, the ft. per second increases.
If you use a 2 wheeler, you don't have to walk quite as "briskly", and inside walks are a little less "brisk" than outside walks with or without a 2 wheeler.
