Yea would also be a shame if on car sups made as much as full scale drivers.Would love to know where you got that!
(But fired sources can't leak stuff. So might be best to keep quiet on that. )
Checks out with what I've been told privately by a PT supervisor.
Nice that they all get a solid raise. We wouldn't want them coming within 5 dollars of the lowly part timers. That'd be a tragedy.
So apparently UPS isn’t worried about giving a huge bump to part timers yet Tony and a local paid financial analist seems to think UPS would go out of business? Hmmm
I talked about this in a previous thread. It's sad that the company wants to take care of their own workforce but the union didn't fight at all for ANYTHING for their senior pt members. What a joke. How can the union look at PT members making over $13 with a straight face and say they could not get some kind of bonus or catch up raise when apparently the company has the money to do so for their pt sups? And this isn't a secret. The CEO had a press release about this!
Classic example of union collective bargaining making a difference in the lives of non-union workers.
$1000 that hourlies don’t get is a catch up bonus. Still bs but better than we are getting.This isn't a catch up raise. PT Supervisors below the new minimum will all be making the new minimum, no matter if they're at the old minimum or if they're $0.01 away from the new minimum. PT supervisors above the new minimum receive no change in their pay rate. So, not a catch up raise. Also, since PT supervisors get a raise at 6 months in addition to raises as part of the annual cycle like everyone... new PT supervisors will be making more than many veteran PT supervisors after they've been employed for 6 months.
It's also not entirely motivated by a contractual increase for PT union employees, although that has pushed the issue. UPS has underpaid its PT supervisors for a long while now, a situation that isn't sustainable indefinitely; UPS needs to attract and retain PT supervisors that are good, and people who are actually good are the least likely to tolerate being significantly underpaid, since they're the most likely to realize that they're underpaid, and also most able to remedy that by finding another job.

It isn't a catch up if they are trying to make supervisor's wage balance not stick out like a sore thumb. This is a classic example of a financial hierarchy.
We have already been getting leaflet staple to our pay stub for $18.75 an hour pt supervisor position opening. Our guys were laughing about it. Our union protection and benefit were too great to let go.

Hahaha you realize top rate drivers make more than on cars and there are part timers making 35 an hour!!!! Learn about UPS pay rates please.What makes you think these aren't connected? Raising inside worker minimums necessitates raising PT sup compensation. It's part of the same cost. You could not sustainably raise inside worker compensation above that of the people who manage them.
That is not correct in every case, at all. Sure, the 120k/year feeders or some of the ultimate OT money grubs in package might eclipse their on-car supervisors but overall, I'm guessing an average on-car in an average market makes a bit more than the average driver.Hahaha you realize top rate drivers make more than on cars and there are part timers making 35 an hour!!!!

Lol! Obviously not!That is not correct in every case, at all. Sure, the 120k/year feeders or some of the ultimate OT money grubs in package might eclipse their on-car supervisors but overall, I'm guessing an average on-car in an average market makes a bit more than the average driver.
Also, dudebro knows his/her stuff and definitely knows more than your or I about supervisor or mgmt salaries
I believe Sups are marginalized and mistreated, they only get incentives based on performance not as us union members. So, you can be years without being compen$ated. I believe its ok UPS in taking care of them somehow. I know for some its not fair, but at least is something they are not
