UPS offers more than a job
UPS provides union jobs and careers with industry-leading wages and benefits, including low- or no-cost healthcare coverage, a pension and tuition assistance. While many of our competitors use gig or contract labor, our Teamsters-represented employees receive the best total compensation packages in the industry.
Industry-leading wages and benefits
Full-time delivery drivers
Full-time delivery drivers earn an average total compensation package of $145,000 per year, which includes $0 healthcare premiums, up to seven weeks of paid vacation, plus an average of 18 days off for holidays, sick leave and option days. UPS also contributes to a defined-benefit pension plan for each employee.
Local tractor-trailer drivers
