[QUOTE="happybob, post: 93737, member: 4724"] As you now all accidents at UPS are avoidable. Avoidable if we had stayed home that day. It should be clear that this type of accident you mentioned Dan should never be charged to the driver. It will be the companies choice to charge the driver whichever way it wants. It appears they usually charge the driver and maybe it's because of the safe driver program. It saves the company money when they charge us, ie. a lower cost to the award program. I agree with you that a committee set up with equal parts worker and management could help, but regret that it would probably work the same way our grievance panels do. The workers would vote for the worker and management members will vote the company line, with the division manager, your prefered tie breaker, allways voting the company line. It's a program run by the company, with no union input, so the results will allways be the same. They can say avoidable whenever they feel like it. I have allways been of the opnion that we should only be charged with an accident when the local police department claims we are at fault. [/QUOTE]
