[QUOTE="35years, post: 3542586, member: 60822"] To tell you the truth the idea of red-circled drivers makes sick to my stomach. That is essentially saying the job is being replaced by combos, eventually. Anyone else been here long enough to remember that all the inside workers were once full time? Their jobs were to staffed by full timers and only part timers added. This was before the era of combo jobs. How many full time non-combo inside sorters remain? Is this a proposal to relieve weekend work and excessive overtime OR a way to move ground with cheaper workers? This is a huge concession. If they want create hybrid drivers then they better be guaranteed 8 hours [B]AND should be paid at full driver's scale.[/B] This would give UPS a flexible workforce without creating 2nd class drivers. If we have to swallow the bitter pill of hybrid drivers there should be clear cut straightforward restrictions. Here are some thoughts on restrictions, honestly it would be a mess: 1. Current T-S and M-friend driver positions remain full time regular driver positions at full pay; UPS is already cutting back Sat drivers in anticipation. 2. Tue-Sat and Wed-Sun hybrid positions will be bid to current full time employees before filling from the outside. 3. No regular driver will be forced to accept relief from a hybrid driver. 4. No hybrid/combo driver should be allowed to preform driver work more than 4 hours per day M-Sat. 5. No hybrid drivers will be allowed to drive if any regular driver is laid off or working inside because his driving work is cut. 6. No hybrid driver can claim seniority rights over any regular driver for any driving work. 7. Mon-Sat no more than 10% of all drivers working can be hybrid drivers on daily basis. 8. Hybrid drivers will not be allowed to cover for vacations or regular bid positions. 9 Regular drivers may grieve, and be paid for hours worked by hybrid drivers if UPS violates the restrictions.
