[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 654341, member: 18708"] I worked in a freezer-cooler unit for a few years when i was in college. It was 34 in the cooler, -10 in the freezer. HOWEVER, we had a FREEZER SUIT to wear to protect against the old. UPS does not donate a suit. Secondly, when I worked in the dog house in Norwood MA UPS preloading, there was no heat. It was in January 2004 IIRC. We had one of the coldest mornings I can remember, I think the temperature was -8. The doghouse was around 0 to 10 degrees. That was simply the worst work experience ever. At the time I had no idea you could file a grievance, but that was definitly a safety issue. My opinion - there should be SOME degree of heat in the buildings that should make the job tolerable. I know that in the primary and loads, where the doors are always open, the temps will drop well below the 45 degree threshold that the company suggests. [/QUOTE]
