Union Job Security Question.?
I was hired as a high value clerk for UPS 5 weeks ago. I was hired because someone was out on workers comp and they needed a replacement. From what I have been told the person is returning in 6 weeks and I would be move to an unload position, which is 5-6 hours LESS per week, and .50-.75 less an hour. This is a total downgrade and I love the position I am doing now. How can I protect myself. I am currently paying my union dues.

it is called being bumped, more seniority with a union allows you to bump a lower senior person to lower job or out the door

Unless there is something in the union contract that you cam't be moved to a different position, and that would be very unusual, there probably isn't anything you can do other than accept the change or look for another job.
