[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 986590, member: 18044"] The complete Union Contract (National Agreement and your Regional Supplement) applies to you in full from Day One. The Contract covers all Bargaining Unit members, and all Bargaining Unit work. (See Articles 1, 2, and 3.) Specifically, Article 22, Section 5 says, "All part-time employees governed by this Article shall be provided a minimum daily three and one half (3-1/2) hour guarantee." Some employees never join the Union, but the Contract still fully applies to them as Bargaining Unit members doing Bargaining Unit work. However, Management does have the limited right to fire you without protest from the Union during your probationary period, so be careful. UPS can't fire you for illegal reasons, or to evade the Contract's provisions. But they can fire you for being an unacceptable worker, or for committing some offense. They can also lay you off temporarily in advance if there is not enough work anticipated to keep everyone busy. First check with your steward and/or Business Agent, to be sure they will back you up if you assert your right to your daily 3.5 hour guarantee. [/QUOTE]
