PTers have no restrictions on hours of work.
You can work as long as they tell you to work. If they didn't want you to work that long, they should have told you to go home, it is not up to you to limit your hours, but managements. It is easy for the hourly to lose track of time when they having this much fun, you know; especially since they don't want you looking at your phone, if they even allow you to bring it in the building.

Lol yeah I understand what ya mean, they told me I was supposed to work 9 more hours after I got off preload and we knocked out the route in 7hrs so they have no reason to complain!

I'm thinking/hoping he is a helper if he's working preload first then going out on route.

You're only allowed to work 12 as a PTer.
Pennsylvania DOL says that a break is only required for working non-adults, ages 14-17. Ages 18 and older are not required to be given a break.

Where is that written in the contract? UPS may want to limit your hours for safety reasons, but when the work needs to be done your management team will ignore it.

That’s Craptacular
I've worked 16+ hours days before as a PTer.

I have heard of guys triple shifting already in my building. Others are working 7 day a week.

I love it when the sorter goes to the can and the unloader just stands around wondering if he will come back. Then the unloader has to go after he does come back.

[q uote="upschuck, post: 1465126, member: 49865"]So you drove? They want only 12 hours/day so you can work all 5 days. DOT rules are 60hrs/week on all work.[/quote]
Negative ghost rider, I'd rather drive this time a year than help, I'd be making 30$ a hr to tell me helper to put on his running shoes and drive him around all day lol, yes I work preload and then go do driver helper, 12hrs is what I figured it was, thanks guys for all the Anwser!

after 5 hours working regardless if a break was taken in a 24 hour period is overtime correct?

I believe that driver helper isn't going to be overtime, I'm pretty sure that's a flat rate kind of deal.

Management does anything illegal as long as it's for their benefit, but in my opinion, if they got the right money I got the time.
