[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 2660823, member: 8481"] It is right. No it is not, but how long have you been here? It happens to all new drivers, or most new drivers. The layoffs come after peak. And do you expect UPS to pay you for nothing? It's not their fault either that they have no work for you. They allow you to bump 2 part timers to get your 8 hours. What more do you want? Yes, you did. But what does that mean? Just like any company out there, you work if there is work. You are laid off if there is no work. You didn't have to take the "promotion." They had the work when they made you full time. Now they don't. It happens every year. Again, how long have you been here? So you think UPS should pay you driver rate to do a part time job? It's not their fault that the volume dropped, happens every year, and they don't need you for the time being. Questions you should have gotten answers to before making your decision to go full time. Take some personal responsibility. You made the choice to go full time, UPS did not force you. You think it shouldn't? You think UPS should pay you driver rate to do a part time job? No, they did not make you full time. You agreed to go full time. You also should know your contract, or if you do not, ask questions before you make a life changing decision. These issues are covered in the contract, and you should have known what might happen should you elect to go full time. What point? The OP already knew he could bump 2 part timers. His issue is the pay rate, and this is covered in the contract, right or wrong. Correct. [I][SIZE=6][B]Central Region Supplement[/B][/SIZE] Section 6 Laid-off, full-time seniority employees, in the order of their seniority, may elect to take the work of one (1) or two (2) part-time employees, for the duration of the layoff, provided they have more total Company seniority. In such cases, the full-time employees shall be guaranteed a minimum of three and one-half (3 1/2) hours work at the[B] prevailing rate of pay for the classification of work he/she performs[/B], [SIZE=6][B]Southern Region Supplement[/B][/SIZE] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=4]SECTION 5 – REDUCTION IN FORCE - FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES (OTHER THAN FEEDER DRIVERS)[/SIZE][/FONT] [SIZE=4] (B) In the event of layoff of any full-time seniority employee, the affected employee has the right to exercise his/her seniority in the following manner: If the employee elects to perform part-time work he/she may displace two (2) part-time employees if available. An employee on a layoff (lasting less than seven (7) days) shall receive their regular wages and benefits.
