[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 675802, member: 18044"] Kae, the progression increase in "step 6" is 87 cents, not 50 cents. So a New Hire under the "All Other" (sometimes called Unskilled) scale would make $11.87 during his fifth year. The "Preloader/Sorter" scale (sometimes called Skilled) is one dollar more: $12.87. The 8-1-2009 GWI was $.375. You got it right in one place and wrong in another. Also, only part-timers who made seniority by 8-1-2008 are eligible for the General Wage Increases (sometimes called "split wages") on August 1st and February 1st of each year. So the person in your example, hired on 9-1-2008 would not be eligible. Teamster and UPS negotiators get paid a lot of money to stay up very late at night in very expensive hotels with fully stocked bars and gentle-touch massage therapists to make this stuff so unnecessarily complicated. I trust everyone appreciates their efforts to keep part-timers just one step ahead of the Minimum Wage. [/QUOTE]
