[QUOTE="PETE'S NEPHEW, post: 171238, member: 9099"] Anyone who has had that rare UPS experiance of working in a top-notch operation (even for a little while) knows that training is the key. I've always been amazed at the amount of money and time UPS has invested in training programs and then how little they follow-up. Training is vital to making everyone's job easier. That being said, a sup pumping out 1300 PPH for a new-hire is not the right way to go. You have to train safety and methods first - speed will come with familiarity of the job. There also has to be some understanding between union and management when it comes to training. A training sup should not be working side by side with a trainee for an entire shift. However, sometimes it is beneficial for the trainee when that happens (especialy when training pre-loaders). Communication between union and management is key so everybody has the same expectations. Everybody wants the same thing - a well-trained employee who will make everyone's job (union and management) easier. I also think that it is important for the union workers in the trainiee's area to take some responsibility for training as well - we all know of situations where the management trainer has never done the job that they are training. I would expect an experienced worker to show a new-hire a few tricks of the trade that will make their job easier. [/QUOTE]
