Our center is about to go to Saturday ground delivery. We currently do not have enough 22.4 drivers. Can UPS force you to work Saturdays.
Saturday work

They asked from the top by seniority who wants to work and if they don't get enough volunteers then they force from the bottom

Yes. Wait til you see how bad the load quality becomes with the Saturday ground implementation. It’s quite hilarious. We’ve had it for about four years now, it’s dumb AF.

Can they force you to work Saturday if your a bid route driver?

Just don't show up
You are a Monday thru Friday RPCD
Nothing they can do to force you in.
Just run out of hours on Friday is another strategy

A couple years ago I bid a mon-fri route. Company tried to force me back to tues-sat roughly 6 months after, due to seniority. Called my union hall and our BA shut that down real quick. Companies response? “Be prepared to be forced in every Saturday for the foreseeable future”
they’ve gotten about 3 Saturdays out of me since then.
It sucks the way they handle this whole Saturday situation
Depends on what supplement you in

Saturday work is $1 a minute if 6th punch and top rate.
They don’t ask me anymore, I just show up with my wheel barrow and carry out their cash.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
The bottom drivers will be moved to Tuesday through Saturday until they hire enough 22.4

Not here, RCPD are M-friend, period. If they push the issue, low seniority work 6 punches.

After implementation yes but when Saturday first comes the local will almost
Certainly give them some leeway to get the 22.4’a hired.

Like years. And they cut M-friend routes and force drivers to either take Monday off or be a cover driver. Been a real disaster at my building for the last several years.

We got 22.4’s hired pretty quickly. 2 months or so but Mondays are a
show.22.4’s don’t work but about 6 hours on Saturday. Lots of areas aren’t getting delivered on Saturday. Routes still being cut on Mondays and it’s just generally a mess.

If you really don’t want to work Saturday, make them force you in. Work the Saturday then file a grievance saying you were forced in out of seniority order. That you came into work and not all junior employees were working. There’s no way every single junior employee will be there.
