They pull TP60s out to gated communities and have helpers delver them with a golf cart.
Who drives the carts?
We had issues here as well, with "helpers" working without being under the direct supervision of a driver. When you leave the helper for 3 hours while you are popping off stops, you are not in direct supervision of your helper.
Also, a driver drives the company vehicle. Any vehicle used to deliver packages. personal, public or otherwise becomes a company vehicle. And as such, the buy that drives it is a driver and is paid drivers wages. Period.
Here, any helper that does not have contact with the driver every 10-20 minutes is considered a driver.
At our center, days off by seniority are given while the lesser senior drivers are able to work.
But they have gotten a new Bosshole, so who knows how things will change.
But the over all language is clear. If you drive a vehicle for UPS while delivering, you are a driver, and entitled to drivers wages.
