[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 910053, member: 484"] Good evening Integ I dont know why you didnt stop and say hello........(see other thread) ;) As for the content of this thread, I can tell you that certain times during my tenure at UPS, things did get moved up the chain, and things did get acomplished because of front line involvement. But as I was leaving, it went back to the way it was before hand. On the surface, and to the public eye (untrained eye), you have a well respected company that is in high standing both on the state and federal levels. They have learned to pay to play on the very uneven field of transportation. And while there are reams of paperwork that will proudly proclaim various processes in place to handle issues, they rarely are given a second look, much less acted upon. And it seems that even the process of safety has been prostituted to not even resemble what it was intended to be. Even in my center it has become a joke, a rubber stamp process of the upper management team. The processes are only as good as those in power allow them to be. And those in power are not really interested in what we have to say. They are more focused on making the production numbers for the center. The safety picture in our center is the worst it has been in 20 years, and less drivers are interested in participation. So instead of what it used to be, the company appoints what ever driver it wants to the cochair position, and it has become a harrassment tool instead of an injury reduction/safety tool. As far as other concerns, unless they see something to benifit their self interests, they bury them locally. And very few calls up the road ever get taken to the next step. So after all this, you have another no. d [/QUOTE]
