New Video! WTF are the METHODS? (Package Drivers Only)

[eats packages]

As far as I know the paper methods for each job (last revised 2014? 2016?) probably are on their way out as much of the IE and HR folks behind them are out of the company.

They are genuinely good documents, maybe less so for drivers that are geared towards deliveries and body mechanics rather than driving.
Most everything else is garbage.

I have a 2023 revised and it’s really not any different.

I get some of them but if you were someone outside the company looking at these the first thing that would come to mind is the company are control freaks. I get these are best practices that have been used for years but they use them against us as a disciplinary issue...pretty much because that's all they have

There are definitely contradictions. I heard that part of the reason that the driver that was fired ten years ago and was "reinstated" right before peak was was helped by those contradictions. Though I can't recall if that came into play then or in the beginning of it when the reason(s) he was fired for were deemed BS but his termination was upheld anyway because of his social media posts. Either way.....it was acknowledged that some of the methods "violations" management attempted to fire him over were nonsense due to those contradictions.

did this guy get back pay for that time??? Isn't he working at the international now??

They are control freaks 100%. Although in my opinion, if you actually follow these as closely as possible, it freaks them out even more.

I seen a needle that winked its eye

Yes and yes. They had to pay him back pretty much everything. He could be the actual reason UPS laid off so many salary employees. LOL

Nice check...taxes were probably brutal.

How much was it?

 

[100%ORIONComplianceGuy]

How much was it?

I’m guessing ten years worth of back pay and whatever else the judge ordered. It’s in the attachment I included a few posts back. But I don’t see an exact dollar amount.

There's a specific line that says, ups will also pay for any excessive taxes do to a lumpsump payment. So he will owe a reasonable amount, but not the extra because of the auto tax bracket from the amount

If it was 10 years then could very well of been a million if they averaged out his weeks.

I wonder if one of the reasons the company justifies its decades old methods handbook is to keep insurance costs down. If not they need to be regularly modified imo!
