Ups Work Values

Daily Duties at Ups:

In charge of fleet safety for the East New England District with 14 facilities, over 5,100 employees and 1,500+ vehicles. Responsibilities included training new UPS drivers Orientaion on how to be safe drivers when driving a package car, OSHA/KETER compliance, trainer education, trend analysis, accident/injury monitoring and follow up training. On a daily basis depending on if I had a training class or not I ran safety reports and analyzed the date in order to make my plan for working with at risk employees. Work withs included retraining of proper methods, on car demonstrations on how to drive safely, and testing the employee on safe driving guidelines. I visited the building throughout ENE on a rotating schedule or depending on safety numbers the ones that needed the most help. During these visits I would work with the safety teams on each shift in order to help them increase their safety numbers. I also worked with the teams to come up with and recognition programs that helped praise deserving employees. If I was in class training new drivers or training managers and supervisor on safe driving I would follow the corporate training program for the acquired amount of days but I also kept an eye on the reports and held conference calls with building managers to ensure we kept our staff safe.

What they like about Ups:

A hiring company that offers alternative approaches to pay, performance bonuses, and/or equity in the firm is very attractive to you. You're generally less interested in working for an organization offering only traditional, salary-based compensation, one with limited opportunity to acquire equity in the firm, or one that does not actively promote skill development. In addition, you are more likely to choose a company that offers a variety of internal career options, with defined career paths. You view the learning of new skills and development of your expertise as key to your career advancement. These aspects of an organization may become even more important to you as you progress in your field, and are especially critical if you change career or occupation.
