[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 388347, member: 484"] our business agent here has filed and won every one of his. trick is to have all your numbers figured out, shich takes a lot of time going through records. i think mike told me upwards of 20-35 hours per. last i heard it was pushing close to a half million dollars total, with the range from 8-32 grand per employee. with all the tech boasting ups does, and they cant seem to pay their employees correctly...... several years ago, i filed on the sock issue. the way the company was the only place you could get socks to wear with shorts, and without them you could not wear shorts. long process. hall had another case he wanted to have settled in his favor without the crapshoot of having it being heard at arbitration, so corp teamsters made the decision to withdraw mine. far as i know, it could still be refiled. won bunches over management doing hourly work, sometimes 5-10 a week also, won under the language that states that management will not allow hourly to work before start time without pay. they had always tried to make it personal between the filer and the hourly that was working off the clock. its not the hourly or the union, its the company that needs to patrol the work area to keep persons not working out of the work area really too many to list i had the forms prefilled on the computer by the type of violation, article and section. all i had to do was add the name, date and grievance number, point, click, print three copies, white, yellow, and pink. about 20 seconds worth of work. as a practical matter though, to getting what you want, sometimes its better not to file, but instead openly communicate, using the grievance process only when comunications fail. just my two cents. d [/QUOTE]
