Our division is claiming the same thing...I believe it's actually being passed down from the regional supervisor, and not an amended contractual agreement.
Sounds like your local is being massaged by corp UPS

Remember when it was only 1 day a month? I can't see the union agreeing to 4 days a week.

Yep. That was prior to Teamcare.

Freight used to have 3 punch rule .

Shameful that we have to work for something we want. I guess it could be worse. We could have to pay for all our insurance.

When did this become a standard?

I don’t know about shameful Although there are some situations where it’s inconvenient, but I think it was around 2013 When team Care took over many places. I’ve never had a problem with it and it’s the gold standard of insurance. I don’t think I’ve ever went a whole week in my career not at least having a punch. And if you’re going to be off that long, there’s other way to make sure you keep your insurance.

My UPS insurance was better than Teamcare and were one of the few locals that kept the UPS/Aetna insurance. It changed a little bit worse to mostly mirror Teamcare.

We were 1 of 5 Locals that had $50 a month retiree insurance....

They used that as a negotiating tool at contract time. They originally were going to raise retirees to more than $400/month but ended up at $150/month. Worse than it was but still better than most people.

Holy HayZues! Work 4 days in one calendar week? Come on, who can do that?

What is wrong with the union in the Central? So mean!

No problem. Just have 177 send them more money.

Nope, we are in a different insurance plan.

The Central snowflakes should suck it up and either go to work, ot write a personal check for their share of that week's insurance tab.

I was being sarcastic. I recognize many are affected and it will be a challenge for some. Hopefully the few dozen of us on here aren’t too bad off.
