[QUOTE="kingOFchester, post: 1087543, member: 11246"] Are the part timers really getting screwed? Lets take a look at the number (not including over time.) A part timer (not skilled) is making $11 an hour after 3 years. The insurance for a part timer with a family costs the company 19k a year. Working the minimum of 3.5 hrs a day, 52 weeks a year equals 910 hours a year. That comes to $10,010.00 a year in pay. Add the $19,000.00 for health care and you come up with $29,010.00 in wages and health. Divide that by the hours worked and you get an hourly rate of $31.87 an hour for a part time job. Take a driver making $32,00 an hour after 3 years of progression. Health care at $19,000.00 a year for family. Working the minimum of 8 hrs a day, 52 weeks a year equals 2080 hours a year. That comes to $66,560.00 a year in pay. Add the $19,000.00 for health care and you come up with $85,560.00 in wages and health. Divide that by the hours worked and you get an hourly rate of $41.13 an hour for a driver. Bottom line: Part timers are getting $31.87 an hour in wages in health care for part time work. Drivers are getting $41.12 an hour in wages in health care for full time work. Not saying they couldn't do better and I know the insurance I get for full time is very rare in any full time work, But it is unheard of for part time in ANY company to get the insurance they get. I think the part timers should be allowed to opt out of the insurance package if they have other insurance for a higher pay. To add, a part timer pretty much gets the insurance and pay by just showing up and applying for the job. My center if you have a heart beat you get hired. The hoops and hurdles drivers have to go threw to make it to a full time gig certainly warrants a higher pay then a part timer. As a driver I am held to a much higher standard then any part timer.
