[QUOTE="Integrity, post: 794219, member: 26800"] pretzel_man, Thanks! Since the term designated walk path is referenced in safety committee meetings and during injury investigations, I think it would be helpful to have this term defined. It can't possible mean that the designated walk path is the path that the service provider decides to take to the delivery point. Since this would mean that every path a driver takes is the designated walk path, why would safety committees have to remind drivers to stay on the designated walk path to reduce injuries that have been happening on the designated walk paths? And when we are talking about injuries can it possibly mean that the walk path is only not the designated walk path when you are not injured on it? If you are injured then you should have stayed on the designated walkpath. I repeat: It is polite and common courtesy to use the walk path that the customer has installed to the front or rear of a residence. It does not have to be concrete. I think there should be no argument that UPS drivers are expected to be polite and courteous. The integrity issue is not really about the designated walk path, this is just an example of one. The integrity issue is when local level management direct hourly employees to ignore or violate UPS safety training or UPS work methods. Does anyone believe this is not an integrity issue?
