[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 684071, member: 927"] Cold, Generally, no.... If I were the IE manager I would not apply for a variance unless it could be proven to be totally out of the control of the operations / district. Let me explain... Work measurement is meant to measure the job, not the employee. This is a failing of how its used at UPS. Just because a driver is overallowed, this does not mean its his / her fault. A poor trace, poor load, or poor dispatch will cause overallowed and its not the driver's fault. Therefore, variances are generally applied for cases where the job setup cannot be controlled by UPS. The best argument for a variance for a packed car would be that the building is over capacity. If there are no car positiions available and no reasonable way to right size the car, then the argument could be made. Still not likely to be applied... P-Man [/QUOTE]
