Benefits

UPSers will stop at nothing to make sure every package delivery communication and business solution exceeds the expectations of our customers. That's why we'll stop at nothing to meet their expectations for great healthcare and compensation, with full-time benefits for part-time employees and one of the most comprehensive total payment packages available for everyone. In fact, UPS is one of the only companies in business today that offers hourly employees full benefits, from medical/dental coverage to tuition assistance.

To assist employees in furthering their educational development, we are proud to offer the UPS Tuition Assistance Program (TAP). An ongoing effort to recruit, retain and develop qualified individuals, TAP ensures that UPS will continue to grow as a company, prosper as a business and excel as a global service.

In the United States, tuition assistance is available to:

• Full-time non-union employees
• Part-time management employees
• Part-time union employees

In 2017, we provided $31 million in tuition support to approximately 12,000 students. Since the program began in 1999, we have invested $355 million in tuition assistance for approximately 181,000 college students.

UPS also invests hundreds of millions of dollars each year on training programs to help employees further their careers within the company.
