Big Package
Handler
What's the maximum amount of days UPS can work us, and for how long per day, and how many total hours per week?
My understanding is UPS can work handlers up to six days a week (sixth being all overtime), with a maximum of 80 hours a week in a Sunday through Saturday period. Is this correct?
How does this work? Six 13.5h days would be great, but seven days at more hours would be even better.
Does preload work in shifts? Or can I bank on 8pm to 10am? Are we allowed split shifts, like preload for 8 hours and driver helper for six? Do you split shift, or how does this work?
I can do every job in preload except hazmat, and I'm really banking on peak money. I'll be surepost by then, too, and three people with seniority well above me just quit.
Also, I need to be offered better positions before seasonal helpers of all kinds are, right? If a seasonal helper goes out and I wanted it, I can grieve that? What other jobs are available for me to get hours?
Thanks very much for any help. I need to squeeze every penny out of it that I can. If I could do seven days a week and 100 hours I'd do it.
Does the federal contract UPS has trump state laws?
