Learning
is taken very seriously
at the United Parcel Service, Inc.
(UPS).
For drivers,
UPS has developed highly
specialized and detailed
procedures
describing the motions,
behaviours, and actions
drivers should perform
for efficient and highly quality
customer service
that minimizes strains and
injuries.
When making a delivery,
a 12-step process
describes how, in 15.5 seconds,
drivers should park their trucks,
locate the package to be
delivered,
and step off the truck
(this process is called selection
at UPS).
All sorts of detailed procedures
are described in UPSs 340
Methods manual
(actually, UPS has many more
than 340 methods and prescribed
procedures).
Lifting,
loading, and lowering boxes,
where and how to hold keys to
the truck,
where to get gasoline,
how fast to walk,
and how to walk on slippery
surfaces
are just a few of the behaviours
that are described in detail in the
manual.
