I'm a 3 year driver am wondering if there are layoffs the contract say we have 2 options.
1)Take a full layoff and collect unemployment, about $550/week but no health insurance.
2)Work inside morning and night at about $12 ($480/week) and keep health insurance.
My question is has anyone choose option 2 and collected unemployment insurance also? Since option 2 is a partial layoff any moneys that are not made by working inside should be able to collect the difference by unemployment.
Example: 40 hours inside at a pay rate of $12 = $480
But since that is less than $550 , $550-$480=$70
So I think $70 can be collected in unemployment that week
I've seen this at other work places but not here at UPS
