Last Friday, mangement came around and stated that we would be provided with masks and gloves. Yesterday, once you entered the building, one noticed a large sign with info provided on "how to" make your own masks. ON a different note, we finally got tape on the belts for "social distancing." We are in Central States. Is there any information on what UPS is "supposed to" provide to "essential workers" in the workplace. Where should one file a complaint? Would it be better to file anonymous with OSHA or try to get the union involved? Haven't spotted any stewards currently on any shifts. The stupid stores are "donating" masks and gloves to the local hospitals so the general public cannot obtain them. Any suggestions? Management is always lying to us - so was not disappointed to see the "how to" directions.
Do this plus what
@BigUnionGuy just posted....
Log in on upsers.com.
Search the topics i have listed below because they are corporate's comprehensive guidelines for management and hourly and it is parallel with the CDC's mandates.
(Get ready to be upset.)
*
Enhanced novel coronavirus measures. There are three pages in this forum that explicitly tell management what they are to adhere to. Read it all, print it, and pass it around at work to your stewards. Then make it happen.
*Cleaning frequently touched surfaces in operations. This is
extremely good to be aware of and pass out as well.
*
Updates to obtaining consignee signatures; safety ride-along procedures. READ the Ride-along procedures...both pages. Know your rights.
*COVID-19: Delivery protocols for customer requests.
*PCM-Use of masks and other face coverings.
Note!
In the "conclusion" section at the bottom it claims that "UPS is adhering to all government regulations for cleanliness, hygiene, and other prevention processes for COVID-19".
Much of this can be found listed under "COVID" and if you click on the "
safety" topic on the left you'll find much more info that the company is NOT adhering to.
At all.
One driver in our area is in ICU in a induced coma. His wife is in ICU as well.
This is life or death for some.
Help your brothers and sisters with this and stand tall!
