[QUOTE="soberups, post: 493204, member: 14668"] I disagree. If every safety committee nationwide wrote a letter to UPS threatening to resign [I]en masse [/I]until 3-point belts were installed, I gurantee you that Corporate would get off of its ass and become willing to make some changes. Issue UPS an ultimatum; you want doughnuts and acronyms and commentaries and a passing grade on your next Keter audit? Then start fixing the seatbelts. Otherwise, we will all quit, and you can simply let your management people play the word games. It is simply a question of motivation. Protecting its drivers from death or serious injuries caused by substandard equipment is not a priority. Protecting its profits from OSHA fines, however, IS a priority. A "safety committee" that cannot or will not hold management accountable for dangerous, substandard equipment is useless and should be disbanded and replaced with one that will. [/QUOTE]
