[QUOTE="soberups, post: 750829, member: 14668"] I take safety very seriously. I do [I]not[/I] take UPS's so-called "safety committees" very seriously. What you will learn, sooner or later, is that UPS's philosophy on safety is very simple; safety begins [I]and[/I] ends with the ability to recite a commentary and memorize an acronym. What you will learn, sooner or later, is that your job as a "Safety Commitee" member is [I]not[/I] to help create a safer workplace. Your [I]only[/I] job is to help the company get a passing grade on a Keter audit. If you think I am wrong, then try this; at your next "Safety Committee" meeting, try bringing up subjects such as unfair time allowances, overdispatching, overcrowded facilities, or ergonomically deficient package cars that lack power steering or 3 pt seat belts. Let us know how willing the company is to address and correct these issues. You will find...as many have before you...that the company will do [I]nothing[/I] about these issues. Its not about safety. Its about paying [I]lip service[/I] to safety. When you finally get sick and tired of playing the same stupid word games over and over and quit the Committee...you will simply be replaced with someone else. [/QUOTE]
