Highlights of the UPS Freight Tentative Agreement
Oct 05, 2018

Highlights of the UPS Freight Tentative Agreement

There are currently nearly 12,000 employees covered by the National UPS Freight Agreement. During bargaining, the company committed to adding more bargaining unit drivers and growing the bargaining unit. Under the tentative agreement, UPS Freight’s wage and benefit packages will continue to be among the highest in the LTL industry. Furthermore, contractual protections and benefits to the bargaining unit have been greatly enhanced. In fact, it is estimated that the overall costs of the tentative agreement to the company are more than 33 percent higher than the costs under the current agreement.
