Not sure when you started seeing this but i know some locals get paid an additional 10 to 15 min, depending on how many years you have been around, and if they work 8 or 8.5 hours, that paid unworked time is reflected in their paycheck stub, this has been that way for quite a while, i know ups is monitoring all worked verses paid hours. to answer your question i am not sure if the unworked hours affect the pension.

Believe me, i am not worrying about you , you think you know it all, you profess to be mr teamster, mr ups hater, mr i am helping my teamster brothers, who are you kidding, you can't even get yourself back to work, i know your type, dealt with them before, you claim you give advice tell people what they should and should not do, some poor ups employee is drowning and you describe the water to them, or some poor employee is in big trouble on fire and you are pouring gas on them claiming its water, by the way, i have forgotten more about ups than you will ever know.

that any employee off work for 1 month gets contributions for an off the job injury.
Red, who makes the contribution for an off the job injury? Company or the local?

Anyone on comp soon discovers that it isn't all that easy to get back to work. Doctors will keep you on it for as long as they can because its easy money for them and they are reluctant to sign off on anyone. Just because you say you want to get back to work don't mean they will give you the ok. They whole system is screwed up.

I'm on your side Red. I wouldn't wish back pain on my worst enemy. Been there with the pain running down the leg thing. Laid in traction with my head strapped to a table and 125 lbs of weight strapped to my waist to stretch me out. No fun at all. Hang in there and I hope they find a solution to your problem soon. I was lucky. I haven't had any problems since that one time but I do watch how much I lift at one time a lot closer now. Liberty Mutual and UPS tried to make me feel like I was the biggest slug in the world back then. Up until I screwd my back up I hadn't missed one day of work in 17 years but as soon as I was put on work comp that didn't mean anything. The day my center manager called me at home and told me to get my lying ass back to work was the official day I lost all respect for UPS and it became just a process of getting my 30 in and getting out.

Even if someone missed 4 months (at least here), you get 8 months of credit which could easily be 9 or 10 months with overtime. Did you believe if you don't make 1800 hours you don't get any pension credit at all? LOL
Hello Dont you remember those great PCMs that we will go after the gravey and let competition take what we dont want, What a mistake. We should have gone for the kill and taken it all. If we would have done this Fed Ex as we know today would not be the same company We can still do this but the people higher on the food chain have lost touch with reality.We drivers are the backbone of UPS and always will be
