[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 643200, member: 18044"] Because it's bargaining unit work? Because the work could have been done by regular employees if UPS scheduled things differently? Because UPS has to fund the H&W plans one way or another. Either they pay for all hours worked, helpers included, or the Teamsters would negotiate a higher contribution rate for regular employees to make up the shortfall in helper contributions. Because seasonal workers who are kept or called back after Peak, under certain circumstances get retroactive seniority to their original date of hire and may qualify for H&W benefits? It's the other way around here in New England. That's one way concessions work their way into the Contract. One area, at a time. Yup. That's what the UPS press release says. . . .

How could you know that? Layoffs occured all over. I hope they are all back but I have no way of knowing. I saw in another thread that some laid off drivers were offered helper jobs at helper pay, not their driver pay. How many total hours nationwide would you allow to be done outside the seniority system before you actually objected? Enquiring minds want to know? [/QUOTE]
