Dear UPSer,
As you plan your future, you may be considering a position in feeders
at ups. Ups has sustained over 100 years of success thanks, in part, to
a culture of promotion from within. It is important to remember that
even in challenging economic times such as these, ups remains committed
to the development and "growth" of our people. Current business realities,
however, mean that our company must carefully manage staffing and costs.
For the coming year, this will likely mean that promotional
opportunities into feeders will be limited or reduced. This should
not discourage you from considering a position in feeders. Instead,
it should help you to understand and accept that even if you qualify,
the wait for an opportunity to move into a new position will require
more patience and time than has been true in years past.
Should you wish to pursue a feeder position, the feeders
promotion and car wash processes are two of many UPS programs that provide
avenues for accessing opportunity and "growth".
This letter is sent analy to inform employees on how to be
considered for either a feeder level position or a car wash position
All current employees interested in greater responsibility may apply.
