[QUOTE="freehoodies, post: 5790572, member: 80887"] The relevant part of the contract to that part “…the back wages shall be equal to what the employee(s) would have earned as a package driver at the applicable daily guarantee versus what they actually earned.” The fact that the contract specifies that implies that even if the company offered them some inside work, they could still be liable to pay for the difference if they could have worked those drivers. If that was argued to management, they might have laid off less employees. It doesn’t necessarily need to go all the way to arbitration. The company isn’t completely unreasonable (not all the time anyways). We’ve been paid out lots of 9.5 grievances at our center. I understand that they can do what they want and just pay the penalties. Lets just make sure that they actually pay said penalties when they make that decision. Thats part of the problem, when drivers approached their shop stewards they wouldn’t file grievance's. Drivers were told there was nothing that could be done, save for finding them some part time hours [/QUOTE]
