UPS Teamsters who are not covered by another Teamster plan should contact their locals and benefit funds.

UPS will pay UPS up to 2 weeks (10 days) of paid leave to Teamsters who have COVID-19 and live with someone with COVID-19 or have been quarantined or treated by UPS, a government agency, or medical professional.

Eight hours per day will be paid to full-time employees. Part-time employees will be paid 3.5 hours per hour.

To apply for emergency paid leave, please fill out the Employee Request Form. Then email it to CoVID19Pay@UPS.com.

After the email has been submitted, the approval process takes 5-7 business days. You must fill in the form accurately to avoid delays.


Two Weeks are Over


You can either use your paid time off after exhausting the ten days of unpaid leave or apply for short-term disability benefit benefits.

If an employee self-quarantines or uses paid time off (PTO) and is later diagnosed as having COVID-19, the company can repopulate the Paid Time-Off up to 35/80 hours.
