ReplyDeleteJust to explain to VOSA & HSE.
This is how it happens in Operations.
- UPS keep their staffing levels low to save money.
- Insufficient staff means extra deliveries loaded on vans.
- Employees scared to complain due to the retribution.
- Listen to Scott Fowler's statement made in a disciplinary meeting. Drivers to stay out until 22.00 in necessary. Stay out or be sacked.
- Drivers go on road with their minds on the bullying, the number of stops they have, etc etc.
- Therefore low concentration.
- Drivers have to cut corners to get back at a reasonable time. Tachographs breaks, Working Time breaks, Speeding, the list goes on.
- Drivers have accidents. See Unite poster about the level of UPS accidents in UK.
How many accidents have to occur, before it becomes an issue?
UPS stance. Someone killed in an accident........Get over it.
Employees biting the hand that feeds.............they daren't.
UPS accidents.
In November 2011 the planned UK District Auto plan was 19.0.
The UK District Auto actual figure was 24.93.
Over 25% higher than the target.
Now what could possibly cause that?
(see above)
Leeds, site of previously mentioned bullying was ranked 50 of 52
We also know that not all accidents were being reported.
