15 billion km without an accident


UPS has inducted 1,316 men and women into the circle of honour, the elite group of UPS drivers who have not had an avoidable accident for 25 years or more. With those new inductees, the circle of honour now includes 10'411 of UPS’s active brown-clad drivers.

 

Collectively, these drivers have achieved more than 280,969 years of safe driving throughout their careers. That is enough time behind the wheel to drive non-stop from Miami to San Diego in the USA – over 65 million times. And they did it while helping to deliver 3% of the world’s GDP – 20 million packages a day.

 

Along with drivers in all 50 US states, this year’s circle of honour includes new members from Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, Canada, France, Germany, Mexico, Switzerland, the Netherlands and the UK. All new inductees and current members are issued uniform shirts and jackets with a distinctive circle of honour patch emblazoned with the milestone number of years of safe driving they have achieved.
