Not that I'm aware. They are usually a committee of labor lawyers and executive officers of various locals and the international, some of which are former drivers. This contract was the most extensive in getting information from our work force. We had countless suggestions from drivers with changes they would like to see.

As to where the $90 calculation is coming from if you break it down full timers will pay $2.25 an hour for a 40 hour week that equals$90 a week. For part timers guaranteed 17.5 hours a week or 3.5 hours a day will pay $5.14 an hour that equals 89.95 a week. This is for the first year and then will increase 10% each year of the contract. by the end of the contract we will be paying over $130.00 a week for insurance. over the life of the contract
obama is the cause of this health care issue
Hahahaha So its Obamas fault? So greedy UPS has nothing to do with it huh?
UPS knows we have three options 1.Get obamacare which is not worth a dang. 2. buy our own insurance which partimers can not afford. 3.Take the $90 a week insurance and live with it. So yes UPS has a lot to do with it as well. IT A MIND GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I believe this is a tactic by UPS to have the union chase this issue, so that all the harassment, 9.5 issues never get resolved. That's how they're profiting so much. Abusing the smaller violations at a larger rate without serious penalties. The 90 dollar insurance is merely a scam to over shadow the other thing. Now if the union caves on then we are screwed.
Hope you are right about that but dont be surprised if we have to give a little to get a little.

Pters paying 90 a week for insurance. If that happens 10s of thousands pters would quit. Specially if the ptrs only work at UPS.
Not weak just stating what ups will try to do if they give in two not having us pay for insurance

I know of at least 8 out of our 18 perloaders that said they would quit if that went in to new contract. Thats the only thing keeping ptimers at UPS

Think about it ... maybe UPS (and the Union) want to get rid of P/Timers that work at UPS for the health insurance.

heres the problem ding dongs,, you can save up as much as you want but if we do strike and the Co breaks the union than who cares? I totally agree there should be no hourly concessions,, period.Something i wonder tho,, say the co drops the union,, would the central states be the only co. funded retirement plan?
