[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 1939705, member: 8481"] I didn't have to grieve it. Every package car driver, feeder driver, clerk, porter, part timer etc. that worked last year in my center got double time plus the holiday pay whether they started at 8 AM or 11 PM, whether they finished work Friday or Saturday. I didn't hear of any problems of UPS not paying the holiday premium anywhere else. To better explain it, we need to look at a week when there is only one holiday. Let's take the July 4th week. Let's say it is on a Thursday. The OP needs to work Wednesday night at 11:30 PM because the package cars and feeders ran. They need to run the midnight sort. His holiday is delayed until Thursday night. He does not come in Thursday night because no package cars or feeders ran Thursday, UPS was closed, so they don't need to run the midnight sort. He does not get premium holiday pay because his regular job ended on a holiday and his holiday was delayed. (Until Thursday night) You cannot advance a holiday for the midnight sort so we have to look at another job. Let's say a few people work the same hours, 11:30 PM until 3:30 AM, but work the preload. They set up all the package cars and get the preload ready. They will not work Wednesday night because UPS is closed Thursday and they will not be needed to set up the preload. They will need to come in on Thursday night to set up the preload for Friday morning. They do not get the holiday premium because their regular job started on a holiday and their holiday was advanced. (Wednesday night) Now we come to the "perfect storm" as you called it. Two holidays in a row. The OP starts at 11:30 PM Friday after Thanksgiving, a paid holiday. The problem is, his holiday cannot be advanced, Thursday was already a holiday, and it cannot be delayed until Saturday night because his regular job does not work Saturday night. Remember, if UPS is closed on Friday for the holiday, the OP does not work Friday night. His holiday is delayed until Friday night. UPS is making him work on his holiday. Section 4 says double time. And this only happens one time a year. Section 5 There shall be no premium pay for hours worked on a holiday by employees when their regular jobs begin or end on the holiday. Their holiday is either advanced or delayed, but is nevertheless observed and paid as a holiday. Confusing? Same as Section 1 saying seniority employees shall not be required to work and then Section 4 saying employees who are required to work.... [/QUOTE]
