[QUOTE="RKYMNTBROWN, post: 499042, member: 21720"] [B][I]Management is firing drivers, mostly for petty or trivial incidents, by applying the "proven dishonesty" sin to it. I would like to share with you the strategy management is using towards drivers out here in the west. Once the driver is out of service management waits for the last minute to have a center level hearing. At the center level the company, knowing its case is weak, will offer reinstatement with "time served" (meaning no back pay). If the driver refuses to take the deal he/she is told UPS will dead lock at panel and be forced into arbitration- which can be months and months down the road without a paycheck. Needless to say most drivers cant afford this and take the deal. I feel this is a weakness in our grievance machinery that needs to be addressed. UPS knows this and is abusing it Thanks to everyone. Be safe and retire healthy! [/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
