Today we were told no more rto and no more sick days. If we take 1 sick day we get written up and it stays as a infraction for 9 months. Well that's one way of preventing another sf. Good job UPS. Best part is our local agreed with them and rolled over on this. Wtf am I paying the union for if they side with ups on everything and friend* us drivers, the members
we had a guy who came in sick for feeder and they told him he had to work anyway since they had absolutely no one else to cover his run.
probably true but the driver was really ill.
so he took the truck out and drove down the road a couple hours, pulled over and called dispatch and told them he was too ill to safely operate a commercial vehicle.
they had to send an OR out there to finish his 10 hour run.
so guess what happened the next time this driver called in sick?
OSHA and the DOT would be real happy to hear what UPS is trying to pull with you guys.
I'm sure that's coming nextSo do you get written up if you don't come to work on your vacations?
He's a cowardThat BA needs to be fired!
OSHA orders trucking company to stop retaliating against drivers | Occupational Safety and Health Administration
I think this article would work for package car drivers also.
From your link:
PORTLAND, Ore. – The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration ordered Oak Harbor Freight Lines Inc. to compensate a worker who refused to drive in violation of safety regulations. OSHA has also ordered the trucking company, based in Auburn, Wash., to stop retaliating against workers who refuse to drive trucks while too ill or fatigued to safely operate vehicles at its facilities.
Do you still that this ruling would apply to package car drivers?
Absolutely it would. Package or Feeder, you are a Commercial Driver regardless of the type of license you are required to have. I am personally aware of several instances where a Package Driver brought the car back in & refused to continue due to being ill and/or fatigued. Any discipline issued was withdrawn. Definitely make an STAA complaint to OSHA if there any attempt to discipline due to illness or fatigue (including heat related).OSHA orders trucking company to stop retaliating against drivers | Occupational Safety and Health Administration

I'm just amazed many of you get sick days. If we call in sick, we don't get paid. I'm also amazed that some of you appear to have union representation.
4 personal, 5 sick days.
We can use the sick days as personal but cannot use a personal if we are out of sick days and call in sick.
What is the maximum weeks of vacation you get?
Plus an option week. So 7. Wrong again a hole.
It would be nice if we could carry them over, we get a check in may for the sick days we did not useHere we are allowed to Carry them over also. Not sure what the limit is. I will never have that problem.

His supplement maxes at 6 weeks. They don't have an option week.
"friend. Effective August 1, 1990, all employees with 25 or more years of seniority shall be entitled to a sixth week of vacation providing they are otherwise eligible. This additional week of vacation will be provided in the next vacation period following ratification of this Agreement."
