A UPS driver in Texas crashed his vehicle after allegedly succumbing to heat exhaustion, prompting an outcry from Teamsters Local 767 regarding employee safety. The driver, who experienced heat-related symptoms, was reportedly instructed by a UPS supervisor to continue driving to the McKinney facility instead of receiving medical assistance. Witnesses captured video of the incident, showing the truck swerving dangerously before crashing into a tree. Union representatives criticized UPS for prioritizing packages over the health and safety of their employees, citing previous similar incidents and ongoing issues with the lack of air conditioning in their vehicles. UPS has acknowledged the incident and is conducting an investigation, while the National Weather Service recorded temperatures reaching 102 degrees Fahrenheit that day. This accident follows a previous case of a UPS driver in the same area who died from heat stress last summer, raising concerns about the company’s adherence to safety protocols.
