[QUOTE="poppybill01, post: 459320, member: 19536"] O1 focus: I am in the same boat as you. I am one of the 10 percent on call and have been told the same as you by both stewards and management--they can work a casual as long as he doesnt get more hours than me, (the so called fulltime employee.). Like yourself I have yet to read that anywhere in the contract unless----it is covered in detail in the UPS Package National Freight Agreement that I have not looked at. I have a question for you that I cant get management or stewards to answer either. I started as casual employee on August 15th of 2008. On November 5th I attained full time status as local cartage/dock as needed. The way I read the contract it states that "any casual employee who attains full time shall be considered to enter that position at the senority rate". I am being paid as a new hire. When I questioned this the manager told me " when you understand the contract come back and see me" DUH, that`s why I have asked everyone-I thought I did understand. The manager tells me I have to work 45 reports [B]after November 5th before attaining the senority rate.[/B] Doesnt make sense to me that I am being paid the same as a new hire right off the street. Also, attaining senority in 2008 rather than 2009 means quiet a bit toward vac days, future vacation, personal days etc. Can somebody out there help me???? and dont even get me started on the Health Benefit Package eligabilty. Does anyone at UPS Freight know or care about new employees?????????? [/QUOTE]
