[QUOTE="Inthegame, post: 1106006, member: 37112"] Article 22.3 of the '97-'02 CBA stated, "If there is a reduction in volume causing layoffs, the Employers obligation under this section shall be null and void." Following the '97 strike UPS claimed volume losses (yet still posted record profits) and drove their trucks through this loophole in the Carey/Hall negotiated agreement. The Hoffa led Teamsters filed charges with the NLRB and in March of 2000 enforced the 22.3 job provision forcing UPS to comply, and combo jobs were implemented with many receiving back pay awards. Then the wheels came off because no one properly documented the jobs and here we are with lots of questions. Hoffa had it right in '98 and apparently has now fallen asleep at the wheel. I'm hoping hall is awake. As an inside employee, how are you negatively affected by Surepost? Don't all Surepost packages go through the sorts, with final delivery made by the USPS? Not saying I like it but FEDEX does offer Smartpost and without a competing service I'm guessing we'd have less volume. [/QUOTE]
