So I'm senior driver that's been on my route almost 17 years. A question for you all. Is it worth the ink of fighting management for not dispatching me at least 8 hrs of work, giving my work to pvd drivers hence no overtime for me? I filled a grievance yesterday for the under dispatch and...

Working Overtime Can Be Essential Job Function- SHRM
The ability to work overtime can be an essential job function under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled, deferring to United Parcel Service's (UPS's) explanation that overtime was essential...
After reading this :censored: proposal at least two things are clear. First, the union and UPS have no qualms about working us to death. Second, overtime no longer serves it's original purpose. It's time we start demanding an overhaul of DOT laws at the state level and nationally. Overtime was...

Anyone hear anything from the 4 year progression changing in the new contract ? I heard it’s going down to a 3 yr or up to 5-6
I’m 1 year into driving. So if it went down to a 3 year would i fall into that or stay at the 4 year
UPS told the Union during contact negotiations that excessive overtime was not a problem.
UPS claimed their internal polling indicated less than 1/5 of drivers think their dispatch is too high.
Do you agree?
First question do part time employees become eligible for full-time pension if they work full time hours, or do they receive more because of the extra hours worked ?
Question two how much will the $13000 added to our pension affect the monthly price?
Third question if you reach top pay as a...
My manager is telling me I can’t work this Saturday because I’m not a Tuesday-Saturday. I told him I was off for New Years on Monday so I should be able to get my 5 day punch, but they don’t want me to get a 7 day punch double time. What should I do?I have 15 years with the company I don’t see...
Is a sup allowed to edit an employees time by moving time under a lower pay code? I've asked for help on this and have wrote grievances galore to fix my time for my checks and nothing.
Maybe someone here can help me out with the rules. I was told today by my full time sup that no one is allowed overtime for the day and I had to clock out at 5 hours. I did as I was told, but a buddy of mine who works in another area for another full timer got almost 7 hours for the day and he...
That was a horrible peak, but we made it. Now it’s family time and that’s the most important thing. No matter how much money we make it can never replace time with family. Let’s enjoy these back to back 3 day weekends and then the line for discipline outside the office after the PCM begins...
With the new contract coming up and UPS showing out with the 70 hour work weeks and hiring SPVD’s, I feel like a strike might actually happen. I’m just not sure exactly what that entails for us as union members and I have a couple of questions if someone could answer.
1) Is the strike fund...
Another incident of a driver being held up and the truck stolen, at 10:30pm. This happened to a driver out of the Roswell building, Marietta Center side. This could have been a lot worse, stay safe out there, hopefully someone doesn’t have to die before UPS gets slammed with overworking...
