[QUOTE="oldngray, post: 1168015, member: 45230"] Bonus is an inherently flawed system due to the inaccuracies and unreliability of time studies. I have been in bonus and non bonus centers and in bonus centers from what I saw allowances magically changed to reduce underallow, and UPS will ask drivers to do many things there is no time allowance for. UPS wanted people to skip lunch and breaks and work unsafely in attempting to get off early. If people were too far under their allowances would be adjusted so they were barely under. UPS could get away with over dispatching routes and have everything delivered without needing to put in more routes. And the drivers that were management's pets would get easy delivery work while others near them got the garbage. Also it created a lot of friction between drivers where people were not willing to work together. I have been on routes where no matter how hard you work you will still be at least an hour over and other routes where it is easy to be an hour under with much less effort. But the change in a center when it goes to bonus are almost all bad. One center I was in voted out bonus because of how it was handled. [/QUOTE]
