Union says UPS employees overworked, forced to take unpaid lunch break -WMTW
The union that represents UPS workers in Maine is speaking out about what they describe as unfair labor practices.
Teamsters Local 340 leader Brett Miller said UPS workers have spent the past two years of the COVID-19 pandemic understaffed and overworked.
Miller said the company needs to hire at least 100 employees to allow current workers more time off and to avoid consistent overtime.
He said UPS workers often work six days a week and put in 15 to 20 hours of overtime.
