[QUOTE="soberups, post: 395407, member: 14668"] They have the power, they just dont realize how to use it. Imagine for a moment what the safety committees could actually accomplish....if they formed a nationwide network. Imagine the "United Safety Committees" of UPS being formed....and threatening to "go on strike" from all participation in company-mandated safety activities until UPS makes actual, meaningful changes to its equipment and facilities. Imagine the USC/UPS writing an open letter to OSHA explaining why it feels that further participation in UPS's safety activities is pointless. Of course I doubt this will happen, since most of the Safety Committee members I know have been hand-picked by management and are given preferential treatment (easy dispatches, easy overtime etc.) in exchange for not "rocking the boat" when it comes to confronting the company on safety issues. No, its a lot easier to just grade some papers, hand out a few doughnuts and call it a day. [/QUOTE]
