- eesmith 3y agoThat's for full-time workers, and includes overtime.

Fifty-five percent of the drivers are part-time, and UPS has a two-tier wage system. Part-timers got paid a lot less.

But the union disputes these claims. $20/hour * 2,000 hours = $40K/year From the same source, > Last year, the median UPS employee made $52,000, according to the company's securities filings. Part of goal in the recent UPS Teamsters negotiations was to get better pay for these part-time workers. They were preparing to strike. They got the raise, plus "UPS agreed to equip new delivery vehicles with air conditioning, end forced overtime and eliminate a two-tier pay system for delivery drivers, among other concessions." The CEO, Carol Tomé, makes $19 million/year and "UPS posted a record profit last year."
