[QUOTE="brownman2075, post: 5016878, member: 73641"] I don’t think UPS has any desire to push this unless their hand is forced. UPS has said this themselves in so many words. OSHA certainly is dragging their feet. Hmmmm… I wonder why. Possibly because they can’t lawfully do it and there are attorneys and governors ready to sue only to put the unconstitutional edict on stay pending a court judgement?
