I have been a cover driver/air driver for 18 months now and have recieved the appilicable raises for both. $13.50/hr for air and 85% of top driver rate for cover driving. According to the contract my next air raise is supposed to occur 6 months from now, which, would put me at 24 months as an air driver. In the contract it says the "24 month top rate" is to change each August of each year of the contract. I will hit the 24 month mark in April 07 so the question I have is what will my top rate be exactly? In the contract it says $20.50 as of August 1, 2007 but don't I have to go through "progression" or something like that?? I find it hard to believe that I'd jump from $13.50/hr to $20.50/hr in 6 months. If anyone could school me on the way this works it would be appreciated. It's hard to get a straight answer at work. And when I can get an answer on any issue it takes forever. Browncafe is a good alternative source for info and is usually quicker.
