union

I mean this sincerely to all my good union brothers and sisters, fulltime and partime: DON’T LOSE YOUR COOL because of the mess UPS mismanagement has put us in. As a feeder driver, I bumble around from hub to hub supporting various preloads in my district. I’ve seen a lot of anxiety, stress...

Local 174 has ceased all member participation in all safetey committees in all of our barns as of today. All employee safety committees have been disbanded. UPS obviously does not care at all for our safety anyway. 70 hours! They can start doing the pcms instead of us doing their job. It's a...

I am a helper and have been a helper on 3 separate peaks. I have never missed a shift and I love the job, if there was a full-time helper position I'd be in there like swimwear. My HUB is saying the week before Christmas will be a 7 day work week and drivers will make triple pay on Christmas...

....does UPS say "uncle"? When will this company tell the truth; that we can't maintain an infrastructure, fleet, and the staffing necessary to accommodate the ever increasing influx of volume for essentially 2 months of the year? How much longer will the Union allow a bunch of pencil neck...

If I started December 17th 2016, would I be eligible for the union health care plan Dec 17th 2017? or later than that since I was considered seasonal but got kept as permanent

I was hired as a seasonal driver last Christmas with the hopes of getting on full time. Of course it didn’t happen and was let go in January. Next I got hired as seasonal over the summer and work from April till September and was let go again. Now I just started back a month ago for Christmas...

Forced six days. The union has failed us. We still, as individuals, control the work. Walk, don’t run. Hand trucks are for pushing, not pulling. If you need a strap to keep your packages in place, you are overloaded. Hell, you shouldn’t be using a strap to begin with. Utilize crosswalks and...

Alright, so there are tons of posts which I have read and re-read on here. Feel like I have some decent info, but really want feedback from others on my potential plan. So I'm 33, I have been a desk jockey for 5 years. Pay is okay not great, health benefits are expensive, I work 8-4 M-friend...

I was wondering im not exactly on the best of terms with management and they keep giving me signs that they are going to fire me after peak season even though I do my job and come in on time though I might not be the fastest can the business manager still fire me or are...

I've been perusing the forums for a while now and I keep reading that the P-sup position only seems worthwhile if you're IN college looking to get a degree. Here's the catch for me though: I already HAVE a BA in History. Which I can't find a job with so now I'm stuck here (and I hate wording it...

I've heard this rumor for a few months now. Does anyone have any reliable information on it? Is this just a rumor?

It's that time of year again when the Union disappears and management gets to run wild. Those who have Saturday ground operations will know what I am talking about. I don't need any snarky remarks, save them please. I have a few simple questions. 1) Where in the contract does it state that we...

Long story short I am currently working as a seasonal delivery driver helper. The position entails a $200 weekly and $500 seasonal attendance bonus. I just received a notice for jury duty which would be during peak season when I would most likely be called. I am working on deferring my jury duty...

I want to eventually become a Ups package delivery driver. I've worked a couple seasons with UPS as a driver helper. I'm aware that you would typically have to start at an entry level position to work your way up to driver. I'm currently part of a different trades union but I am thinking of...
