Management has no excuse for supervisors working while a single Teamster is laid off.

Supervisors are not “helping” you when they do bargaining unit work. They’re eliminating jobs and taking money out of the pockets of members.


Supervisors should not be doing our work under any circumstances and especially not when members are laid off. Stop supervisors working and make UPS pay for violations.

Article 3 of the Supplement outlines the steps management must take before working, including using a call-in list.

The new contract supercharges our supervisors working grievances by creating a new quadruple time penalty for violations by supervisors that are repeat offenders.

The first two violations will be paid at double time. But the third violation by the same supervisor is eligible for the quadruple time penalty under the new contract.

  • Who was the supervisor who worked? Supervisors must wear name tags and give their name when asked.
  • Where did the violation occur?
  • What work did the supervisor do?
  • When did the supervisor work and for how long?
  • Witnesses. Who saw the supervisor working?
