Current Per Diem at FDX

Per Diem :
$2.15/hr (dom)
$2.95/hr (int'l)

Current Per Diem at UPS

Per Diem :
$2.40/hr (dom)
$3.05/hr (int'l)*
$3.55/hr (Pac Rim)*
$4.05/hr (Europe)*

*revised each January using formula (figures shown for 2012)

These new per diem rates are less than we received in 2000. But, I can't find those exact numbers.

Last time I looked, the cost of living had increased around the world. This is an item that should have been addressed and a better result should have be achieved. I bet RA doesn't have to eat ramen noodles when he travels.

One of many shortfalls in the proposed TA
