Positive space options - if associated pairing has a CML deadhead* to or from work, you can deviate and choose your own flights; UPS will pay up to the cost they were going to pay for the scheduled flight. Also available when picking up time and a half OT trips. *We don’t have as many of these types of trips as FX does.



Commuter hotel options - basically none.



Full reimbursement of airport parking fees - yes in very specific and rare cases, otw no, but like FedEx you can park at the UPS facilities.



Protection: basically if you are on a UPS plane heading to work and anything happens making you late or miss a sign in, you are free and clear (but not pay protected for what you miss). There is also language about being on a ‘commercial flight,’ to work and having the same protections. No backups neede, no time limit requirements, nada. From what I’ve heard from guys who’ve had to use the policy, you apparently get a call from one of our “management,” folk asking what happened, then they give you the canned message to make sure to commute more responsibly in the future.



We have guys commuting from all over the world.
