This is not in the National but it is being proposed in the Atlantic Supplement. The company wants to put in place 10hr package car runs. Those runs will have to be approved by the union.My questions are as follows. Is this happening in any other areas? Why would the union even allow such language if it could be used to cut routes? Could this be the begining of the home delivery such as Fed Ex uses? This just seems like another attempt by the company to reduce overtime costs.
Think about the implications that could arise from this.
Drivers taking longer to reach their goal of 1801 hours if they are limited to 40hrs a week.
The ability to make any run in the building a 10 hr run as long as it is approved by the union. ( I hope the union likes you if they don't well gett ready!)
Seperate bids just for coverage.
Just to many unknowns!
If UPS wants it, you better believe they have somthing up their sleeves.
