[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 542670, member: 18044"] The Contract applies equally to union and non-union employees alike, just so long as they are in the same bargaining unit. By law both groups must be treated the same. Same wage scales, health coverage, pension, grievance process, representation, etc. If a "temp" mechanic makes less money than a regular mechanic, it's because he's a "temp," not because he's non-union. In some areas UPS mechanics are represented by the Machinists Union (IAM), so union and non-union mechanics would be a part of the Machinists' bargaining unit and covered by the Machinists' Contract rather than the Teamsters'. Non-union employees of the bargaining unit can not vote on the Contract, attend union meetings, run for union office, or vote in union elections. [/QUOTE]
