[QUOTE="705red, post: 215202, member: 5229"] Cole i think you might be onto something here. Its been real hot here lately and i have been watching drivers drop from the heat, headaches, vomiting, fatigued. Maybe when/if osha ever looked into this i bet you the dispatches were alot lower, and it was probably many years ago. I bet you if osha would look into it now changes would have to be made! My hottest day was 109 in the cab and 123 in the back of the truck, thats way to hot to work at the pace we must work at. I think its about time that we the drivers start to DEMAND better ventalation and or air conditioning. Lets all start calling osha in our areas and filing complaints, but first we should set up a date where we stand out and have petitions signed by all of our drivers and file a group complaint across the country that way ups can not single any of us out. Lets plan on doing this within the next week or two. I will take the lead on this and you can pm or email me and i will get you the osha number in your area. Lets not forget lets send copies of the petitions to osha, and the union. When its all said and done hope fully we can say that we changed this practice by uniting through this brown cafe website. Im ready for a rumble, are you ready to rumble my fellow upsers? LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE! [/QUOTE]
