At UPS, getting a shot at health benefits after 60 days was a "huge plus" when Jema Albarran, 31, first applied for seasonal work at one of the company's hubs in Lathrop, California in 2017, along with flexible scheduling that let her "come in early and come out early." — PolitiTweet.org

Seasonal workers used to get about $10/hr a few years ago. Now several big employers are offering up to $14 or $15. Besides hourly pay, some employers are offering eligible full-time employees either health benefits or a shot at qualifying them after an initial period. — PolitiTweet.org

Most holiday workers we spoke with said they were mainly doing it for the money. Two UPS workers said the possibility of getting a full-time career out of it was an attraction when they applied for seasonal work. 1/3 of current UPS permanent employees first started as seasonal. — PolitiTweet.org
