[QUOTE="Jones, post: 93599, member: 4805"] In many ways the idea of a panel made up of both hourly and management sounds like a fair way to do it, but it still has some serious (in my view) problems. How objective will it be when it's a driver that everyone likes? Or dislikes? Or a driver that the hourlies like and management doesn't? The hourly members will still be under pressure from the union to cut the driver a break, and will also be in the uncomfortable position of having to face their coworkers if they support a panel decision that leads to a termination. An idea that I've been mulling over is that the company should contract with an outside agency that specializes in accident reconstruction and has no vested interest in the result of the investigation one way or the other. I doubt the company would ever be willing to give up that much control over the process though, which is also why I ultimately think they wouldn't go for the panel idea either. Plus they don't like paying someone else to do something that they can have their own people do for free (I don't blame them for that either, it's a valid concern). [/QUOTE]
