Article 10 section 2
The Employer will incorporate into the DIAD for packages shipped using Worldship and
Maxiship within sixty (60) days of ratification (as well as other shipping systems when it is
technologically feasible) a function that will prompt the driver when a specific type of fund is to be
collected for each C.O.D. delivery (e.g., certified funds, cashiers check, money orders). The
Employer will notify the Union prior to the installation of the prompts or as the system is
expanded. If the driver collects an improper check, the Employer shall inform the driver of that
acceptance.
The Employer shall make a reasonable effort to collect for losses due to bad checks, to include a driver
follow-up, and an attempt by the Manager or his designee to meet with the consignee and a letter
to the consignee requesting payment, when appropriate. Should a driver who has been held liable
for restitution choose to pursue legal recourse against the consignee, the Employer will provide
any necessary documents to aid the driver in processing a claim through the courts. The employee
shall not be held liable for restitution or disciplined if he/she accepts an irregular check if a reasonable
person would have accepted the check. No employee shall be subject to restitution or discipline unless
the Employer brings the bad check to the employee's attention within fifteen (15) business days after
receiving a written shipper notice of claim.
