Because no one is perfect. And that's especially so for the company and management. And from what the OP is saying, it sounds like these scanners are costing way more than an extra 20 mins. And when an entire sort center gets 40-50 misloads a day, paying the drivers to run those have to cost more than it would to pay preload an extra 20 mins.
You vastly underestimate the cost of labor. That solution is 100k per day @12/hr. 2.5 million per year. More if we count any OT, pension, or benefits. The scanners won't cost that much.Because no one is perfect. And that's especially so for the company and management.

LIBs are missed packages if they aren't attempted. Keep trying.It's bad because most of the previous LIB's were fictitious. Now management will have to come up with new and creative ideas to hide the misloads so they aren't considered missed packages.
Can be a few reasons. One is the spa guy simply mixed up the package scanned and placed the wrong labels on the wrong package. Other is because the machine sputters and screws up. The former is more common than the latter, but both happen.I would still like to know the technical reason that out of syncs happen?
Is it from recycled tracking numbers or something else?

But they can be charged to the preload side of the operation rather than the on-road side. Service failures are fine at UPS as long as they show up on someone else's report and not yours.LIBs are missed packages if they aren't attempted. Keep trying.
In most package operations, the package DM has both the hub and the preload. Your conspiracy theory doesn't help the DM you say is cheating. In smaller operations, the manager has both preload and onroad. When that manager moves 10 dollars from one pocket to the other, is he/she richer?But they can be charged to the preload side of the operation rather than the on-road side.

Load quality is terrible in our hub after they went live with the scanners. It's obvious scanning every package slows them down. You think they slowed down the belts? Of course not. You think they hired enough people? Ha! How do the loaders make up that time? By just tossing it in the truck. Misloads are down but load quality got worse.
Drivers do too yet they bitch and whine about everything.You get paid by the hour?
Don't you!
Enjoy the overtime.In attempt to reduce misloads in my center, we have implemented a god awful scanner process. Preloaders have to walk around with a belt and finger scanner, scanning every single package before putting them into the trucks. On top of taking upwards of 10 seconds for the scanners to capture the barcodes, it's now impossible for me (and everyone else on my belt) to work efficiently. I've been told that if we don't scan literally 100% of our packages, we will be written up. Has this happened at any of your centers?
