[QUOTE="TIMN, post: 5684448, member: 106937"] In the South the Deadlock Committee determines if a case is referred to arbitration, not the local union. For “white paper” agreements the local does determine whether or not a case goes to arbitration but not at UPS. Again, only speaking with regard to the South. If the Company has a crappy case the vast majority will be resolved locally or at the regular committee. Currently in most cases that reach the Deadlock Committee the member has some culpability. I would have to research it to give exact numbers but I can’t recall a case which went to arbitration in the past 10-15 years where a member received much back pay if any from the arbitrator and the majority actually had the termination upheld. I’ve dealt with a sitting arbitrator on the UPS Freight Committee for several years and it rarely benefits the member. [/QUOTE]
