Not knowing when your kid started and skilled or unskilled position. If he is under the old progression, he gets .70 Aug1. If that raise puts him under the new rate then he gets the new rate. If the .70 puts him over the new rate then he gets the higher wage. Hope this helps

I'm kind of in the same boat as his son. I was hired September 8th 2009. I have my skill pay. On September 8th of 2013 I received a 99 cent raise to put me at 12.99 an hour. Now after the new wages were installed I make 13.50 an hour. Why did I not receive the 70 cent raise to put me at 13.69?

I dont understand the .99 raise or the $12.99 I dont see that rate anywhere in old or new contract. If in fact you were making $12.99 then you should be making $13.69. Have you center manager read Article 22 Section 5 of the new contract.

You did, technically. More specifically, on Sept 8th, the raise you got was a raise you wouldn't have gotten because we were still under the old contract at that point because the new one hadn't passed yet. So instead of going up to 12.70, you're now at 12.99. However, there's a further bump as people with 4 years seniority under the new contract make no less than $13.50 an hour, so you got a further bump to $13.50.
So in reality, you got a $1.50 raise. It's just you saw part of it on Sept 8th, and the rest of it just now. But you'll get a retro for the difference.
I am kind of curious how things would have played out should hypothetically there was no starting wage bump and the contract passed on august 1st. Would you have not gotten the base 87 cent raise, or would you have been stuck with the 70 cent raise?

There was a 12 cent COL raise on top of the 87 cent raise.

Thanks guys. So basically on my retro I'll get 70 cents for every hour until September 8th then I'll get 51 cents for every hour from 9/8 to 4/18. Thanks for the clarification.

It's possible they'll be NDA letters, grievance checks are sent live this way sometimes, even if you have DD. You can check your UPSers.com paycheck info and see if you have a check in between Fridays. Just posting a possible situation since the only time I've seen mid week checks is when they send out live ones for grievances.
He came there in Oct.2009,but didn't make his seniority till Jan.2010 as our shop steward told me last night.He'll get the .70 in Aug this yr he told me.As far as his retro pay,he thinks he'll be getting .50 for the hrs he worked either from Oct 2009 or from Jan.2010 till Apr.this yr.But ya know a lot of people that have been there for over 10yrs did not know that you have to be there for 4yrs to get a union raise,it was in the last 2 contracts stating that.Those who did know that,probably didn't think about voting in this past contract,why should they?They're only getting .50 a yr regardless of what the union raise is.I'm glad I started when I did.I got by benefits in 3 months for everyone in my family,not like the last 2 contracts that they had to wait for 1yr for themselves,then 18 months for their dependents,has that changed any in the current contract?
No it hasn't

UPS calculates/ cuts checks for 230,000 employees local-by-local every week!Iing hate the defending the company, but calculating/cutting checks for 230,000 employees local-by-local is no small feat. Taking 30 days to do so isn't unreasonable.

We had a power point PCM this morning.
No raise checks for people not employed with UPS anymore unless a retiree. Hourly that went management will get a raise check. If you have child support taken out by percentage it will be deducted. If child support taken out by flat rate, no deduction. Raise check will not be considered a bonus as bonus checks are taxed higher.
