How to Protect Your Job as an Inside Worker

The number one thing management uses to discipline and fire inside workers is attendance. Don’t fall into management’s trap.

Protect yourself from harassment and discipline by following the methods–especially when management is looking to write people up.

Key inside methods management tends to target include:

  • Three points of contact
  • Wear safety shoes
  • Labels facing up
  • Hand-to-surface methods
  • Team lifting overweights. Never lift over 70 pounds alone.

Working safely is not working “slow”—it’s contractual.

Our job is to give UPS a fair day’s work for a fair day’s pay. It’s management’s job to staff the operation properly.
