As a business owner, at least in my experience it’s about 30-50% more per employee’s base wage for benefits.

I don’t say that negatively. I am not entirely sure how it would hit 2x though, but I suppose it would depend on the industry? My particular industries don’t have overhead of trucks, uniforms, badges, etc.

edit: I think people misunderstood what I’m saying. I’m basically saying that I feel like UPS is inflating some side of numbers to argue for a “total compensation” amount but the reality being a lower base amount for the employees. Benefits have value, for sure, but I personally think UPS drivers base pay needs to be higher.
