[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 770329, member: 18044"] Contractually negotiated wage rates are minimums to allow for the payment of time-and-one-half (and maybe double time), to allow for someone working in a higher pay classification for part of the day to be paid the higher pay all day, to allow for an air driver to be paid package car driver rate when handling ground packages, to allow for premium pay on a sixth punch, to allow a highly-paid part-timer to be grandfathered at the higher rate when he goes full-time, to pay driver Bonus, to allow the payment of the "extra dollar" to all part-timers in areas where UPS can't attract enough warm bodies, etc. UPS can pay higher wages if they want to, just as they can give us a holiday turkey, safety awards, years of service awards, stock purchase discounts and tuition reimbursement etc. if they want to. Also check your Maintainence of Standards clause in your Supplement. And finally, there's . . . ARTICLE 22. PART-TIME EMPLOYEES Sections 5.Wages [B]The wage rates and increases provided in (a) and (b) shall be a minimum.[/B] [/QUOTE]
