[QUOTE="35years, post: 1932258, member: 60822"] ARTICLE 17. PAID FOR TIME... The Employer will not allow employees to work prior to their start time without appropriate compensation. ...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... That includes gathering supplies, talking to the OMS about concerns, planning your day by looking at the ORION screen, talking to the sup about cust concerns etc. INCLUDING listening to PCM. You are not late unless you punch in more than 59 seconds after the clock ticks to your scheduled start time. If you walk up after PCM is half over and they [B]dare[/B] to say anything; tell them you, the steward and your manager can all call the Dept of Labor together to find out their policy. UPS is required by law to stop you from working off the clock: [B][I]"A.[/I][/B][I] The courts have held that work time under the FLSA includes all time spent performing job-related activities which (a) genuinely benefit the employer, (b) which the employer "knows or has reason to believe" are being performed by an employee, and (c)[B] which the employer does not prohibit the employee from performing[/B]. These can include activities performed during "off-the-clock" time, at the job site or elsewhere, whether "voluntary" or not."[/I] [/QUOTE]
