Transfering

[3838373]

Are you able to transfer to another UPS (if one is moving) and still keep your seniority, pay rate, etc? I may be moving to another state and want to stay with UPS; i'm part time pack handler.. i would be most interested in keep my health benefits

You can move and possibly get referred by your current supe for immediate hire at a new location. Unfortunately you would lose all seniority. Afterall, how would you feel if some guy from Podunck moved into your area and jumped the seniority list in front of you after you invested all of your time.

Quit and rehire. Starting all over.
Discuss this with your HR before you leave so they do not put you on the 'do not rehire' list when you leave.

We were told that unless it is for school purposes, you cannot transfer. However, it is possible to quit and rehire and keep your years for vacation and benefits only. You would start with 0 seniority as far as seniority list goes.

I'm confused- Are you a pt loader or did you just sign a driving bid? If you are a driver, forget any chance of getting a driving bid at the center you transfer to. You will go back to PT.
