Thank you ironshot! Mr tieguy obviously wears his tie tight. what he dislikes about me is that I refuse to swallow his spoon fed BS. He figures he's smarter than all of us blue collar folk. He's probably been to college, & the mind manipulation school of UPS, so he feels that affords him the right to talk down to me, and apply his bully tactics. Let us see if any of the following facts sound familiar to him:
UPS Professional Conduct And Anti-Harassment Policy
UPS is proud of its professional and congenial work environment and will take all necessary steps to ensure that
our workplace remains pleasant for everyone. In order to maintain a positive work environment, all employees must
treat each other with courtesy, consideration, and professionalism. The Company prohibits unprofessional and
discourteous actions, even if those actions do not constitute unlawful harassment.
In addition, harassment of any person or group of persons on the basis of race, sex, national origin, disability,
sexual orientation, age or religion is a form of unlawful discrimination which is specifically prohibited in the UPS
community and which may subject the Company and/or the individual harasser to liability. Accordingly, derogatory
or other inappropriate remarks, slurs, threats or jokes will not be tolerated. Similarly, inappropriate visual and nonverbal
objects or conduct are unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Likewise, inappropriate physical contact will
not be allowed in our workplace. In other words, UPS will not tolerate harassment of any employee by anyone for
any reason.
Sexual harassment is one example of inappropriate harassing behavior. Specifically, sexual harassment,
includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or any other visual, verbal or physical
conduct of a sexual nature when:
1. Submission to the conduct is made either implicitly or explicitly a condition
of the individual’s employment;
2. Submission to or rejection of the conduct is used as the basis for an employment
decision affecting the harassed employee; or
3. The harassment has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with the
employee’s work performance or creating an environment that is intimidating,
hostile, or offensive to the employee.
Each employee must exercise his or her own good judgement to avoid engaging in conduct that may be
perceived by others as harassment. Generally, forms of harassment include, but are not limited to:
1. Verbal: repeated sexual innuendos, racial or sexual epithets, derogatory slurs
or remarks, off-color jokes, propositions, threats, or suggestive or insulting sounds;
2. Visual/Non-verbal: derogatory posters, cartoons, or drawings; suggestive objects
or pictures; graphic commentaries; leering; or obscene gestures;
3. Physical: unwanted physical contact, including horseplay, touching, interference
with an individual's normal work movement, or assault; and
4. Other: making or threatening reprisals as a result of a negative response to harassment.
Any employee who witnesses objectionable conduct or believes that he or she is subject to or may be subjected to
objectionable conduct must report it immediately to a supervisor or manager, a Human Resources representative, the
Human Resources manager, the Employee Relations manager, or the UPS Help Line at 1-800-220-4126. These
reports may be made verbally or in writing. Do not allow an inappropriate situation to continue by not reporting it,
regardless of who is creating that situation. No employee in this organization is exempt from this policy.
In response to such reports, UPS will conduct a prompt and thorough investigation. To the extent possible,
investigations will be kept confidential among the employees concerned and those employees who need to be
informed in order to complete the investigation. Any employee who brings such a report to the attention of the
Company in good faith and/or provides information related to such a report will not be adversely affected or
retaliated against. UPS will take immediate and appropriate corrective action whenever it determines that
harassment has occurred. Any employee who violates this policy may be subject to termination or other disciplinary
action.
Now let me guess Tieguy...I'm sure that you're going to say the above is not factual also, right? Tieguy claims to be the benevalant UPS representative, Ironshot. As you pointed out, he and hoffa have something in common..they love to bully people.So you can see what I have posted is true. Do you think he abides by the above policy on the job? I wish you luck ironshot! You are about to learn alot about the new owners of overnite. So when Ups management wants to make you they're whipping boy, just call 1-800-220-4126.
