Progressive discipline??

[Thebrownavenger]

Is it true that a driver needs to go through "progressive discipline" before he/she can be terminated for a non-cardinal offense? If UPS management terminates an employee who commits a non-cardinal offense, isn't that a breach of the UPS/Teamster contract? Shouldn't UPS be held liable for the breach of contract?

If fired for a non-cardinal offense, it is otherwise known of as a short, paid vacation. Other than that, what the guys above said.

Drivers are held liable thats what progressive discipline does. When the company breach the UPS/Teamster contract the union doesn't go on strike, but it would solve the 9.5 problem.

how are the back wages calculated. 8hrs per day or based on an average of you actually daily pay?

I believe they take hours worked by the driver that does your route, and they pay you that

That's the only method I have heard of them using around here.
