I was wondering if any of u guys out there have been seeing a strong push towards progressive discipline based on performance certified on a 3 day OJS ride. For example:
Jo is OJS'd for 3 days, within a weeks time the company certifies him at 18.5 an hour (spore),(ouch!, not me I swear). A week after certification Jo runs a spore of 17. He is imediatly given a talk with, asking him to maintain the certified 18.5. Jo complains that during the OJS his route was modified, he had meet points, bad weather etc. Company maintains that all that is factored in to your numbers and that he must always maintain the demonstrated performance. Next week same thing except he recieves a warning letter, week after that a suspension, after that an intent to discharge.
My advice was to file a letter of concern against the 3 day ride. On the flip side i know another driver who was OJS 'd and brought the truck in all three days over 9/5 and was harrassed to no end all three days. He is being told that there will b more rides soon with upper management. it apears that if u dont produce the desired #s in 3 days they will continue to ride with u until they get the desired results #s wise. any OJS info is helpful thx
