The removal of the integrated map function from the DIAD (Delivery Information Acquisition Device) boards used by United Parcel Service (UPS) drivers has raised serious concerns amongst all drivers. This tool was not just a simple function; it was a critical support system that allowed us to efficiently deliver packages to our valued customers. It helped us navigate through our delivery routes seamlessly, without heavy reliance on memory or directions.

Since the removal of this tool, drivers are expected to maintain the same production and workload. This unreasonable expectation has increased the stress levels of UPS drivers. Lack of this crucial aid forces us to speed up, cut corners, and hustle through the day to meet the management's expectations and ward off potential discipline. This necessitated speeding compromises the safety of drivers, pedestrians, and other drivers on the road.

Around the world, UPS handles 15.8 million packages daily (source: Statista). Consequently, any change in a driver's process impacts a vast number of customers. Dismantling a tool that ensures efficiency and safety is counterproductive and detriments both drivers and customers.

We implore UPS to acknowledge the pressing importance of the integrated map function. We call for its immediate reinstatement on the DIAD board, for the thousands of drivers who depend on it for a safer, more effective, and less stressful workday. We strongly believe this change is beneficial for all parties involved: the drivers, the management, and most importantly, the customers we serve. Sign this petition to support the reinstatement of the integrated map function on the DIAD boards for UPS drivers.
