Forced breaks

[Schweddy]

I don't know. Might be something you want to go look up.

I said that FedEx has no set corporate policy against it, and it doesn't. People Manual clearly states that if there is a state law regarding break, it supersedes our own break policy. Keep trying, punkin!

typical manager..

I didn't know you were so into nicknames... whatever you say, deep purple.

Why the NLRB? The stock BC response to anything and everything is to file a class action lawsuit.

Class Action. Big companies like WalMart and FedEx ignore the NLRB.

What does it state in the people manual?

The People Manual is located in the men's room, inside the stall, and is usually in roll form, but sometimes is dispensed as individual pieces. When you apply the People Manual to your ass, your answer from HR will be on the paper.

Magic.

Are any other stations experiencing management writing in breaks on time cards while the station is in a code 43? Happening here, with no discussion, warning, or permission requested. Just sign your corrected time card. They've been inserting shuttle codes based solely on gap reports as well. As far as I know, no one has notified Personnel. When challenged, the time cards have been changed back, so I believe they know what they're doing isn't Kosher.

Several years ago I had a manager that falsified late packages and breaks. Got himself Station of the Year tooboot. Contact H.R. if you can get them on the phone that is!

Well look who showed up on a Saturday night. You must have been on vacation this week.

You can take a break during your 1st or last hour unless your manager doesn't like it. Stop digging.

"unless your manager doesn't like it" you mean the rules are arbitrary and are enforced arbitrarily...stop selectively choosing to enforce rules

LOL, what did you smoke to come up with that?

So what is OUR OWN BREAK POLICY... seems according to you we don't have one.

My last mgr was strictly by the book on everything. She'll never get fired for breaking a rule. So whenever we had a long enough delay she would encourage us to take our break but never forced us to. And if she called us at home she would say we could start later or come in at our regular time. Many mgrs I've known would never give that choice and would act POed if you didn't take your break when they said to. But never disciplined those who didn't. So bottom line based on my last mgr's integrity and the lack of such from others I'd say couriers really can't be forced to take breaks in their first or last hour.

You still don't get it. The official company policy on breaks during first/last hour is that it is will be determined by the individual regions, districts, etc.

Doubling up on shovels, eh?

Better check that comprehension.

No, that one blows.
