[QUOTE="10 Pt, post: 2602330"] That looks like EXTRA work to me and should be offered to hourly in seniority order. The shippers that don't affix the over 70 label by the pkg label should be noted in the center of origin. That issue can (and should) be audited and fixed and drivers should know what their responsibility is in affixing the highlight tape upon pick up. The ball is dropped from every point of handling the 70+# pkgs and therefore the blame finally gets put upon the lowly loader who loads 4-5 trucks every morning. Does the company hold the shipper and the pick up driver accountable? You've got to see the big picture here. The workers comp payouts drive the issue of employee responsibility but we (the company as a whole) are treating the symptoms and not the disease. There are NO shippers on my route that don't comply with the OV 70 language. Why? Because I make sure they understand their responsibility of keeping our (and their own) employees safe when they ship heavy pkgs. [/QUOTE]
