[QUOTE="BigUnionGuy, post: 2082782, member: 4992"] The issue is addressed in the contract. ARTICLE 44. OVER 70 POUND SERVICE PACKAGE HANDLING [U]The parties agree that the health and safety of the employees are of the utmost importance[/U]. The Employer agrees that UPS management will not insist that any unsafe action be undertaken and the Union agrees to encourage its members to cooperate in effectuating the handling, pick-up and delivery of parcels without exposing themselves to safety hazards. Section 1. [B]On Area Package Handling [/B] No employee shall be required to handle any over 70 pound packages alone if it is the employee’s good faith belief that such handling would be a safety hazard to herself or himself. [URL]https://teamster.org/sites/teamster.org/files/6161478090_master_final.pdf[/URL] Call for help. Unless, the customer can regurgitate [U]all[/U] of the safe work methods. :biggrin: If they get injured while helping you.... Well, you get the picture. -Bug- [/QUOTE]
