UPS will hire 100,000 seasonal workers again this year, with starting pay up as a result of the newly ratified Teamsters agreement.
Package handlers and driver helpers will make $21 per hour, while delivery and tractor-trailer drivers will make $23 per hour during the holiday season, a UPS spokesperson said. Last year, package handlers' starting pay was $15.50 per hour and delivery drivers made a minimum of $21 per hour.
The company said it is hiring both full- and part-time positions, primarily drivers and package handlers. Some permanent positions are also available. "We're proud to offer industry-leading pay for UPS part-timers, full-timers and seasonal employees alike," Nando Cesarone, UPS's executive vice president, said in the release."We're looking forward to delivering yet another leading on-time performance this holiday season and helping thousands of workers kick off their UPS careers in the process."
