“The scope of UPS's latest buyout scheme is much broader than the payoff presented to workers last summer, when UPS marketed payouts to more tenured drivers nearing retirement. The earlier program, which UPS called the Driver Voluntary Separation Program (DVSP), was widely rejected by Teamsters nationwide, many of whom took to social media to shred and set fire to the insulting financial package offered by UPS to leave the company. While recent payoffs dangled in front of workers have been larger, the DVSP and DCP programs are unmistakably similar. Grievances over contract violations inherent in the DVSP program are expected to be heard before an arbitrator in May.”

The union advised all locals to file under national language the first time.

The second time the central filed under their stronger language that doesn’t require an arbitrator. A deadlock decision can be a strike issue.

The union agreed to neither buyout and both cases are still going.
