[QUOTE="hondo, post: 593484, member: 8661"] Is the "layoff letter" the first you're hearing about this? Contractually, 45 days notice required. And the company must bargain with the union over the effects of the COO (change of operations).[COLOR=Blue] [B]Article 38[/B] [B]Change of Operations[/B][/COLOR] [LEFT][COLOR=Blue] Section 1. (a) The Employer agrees that prior to any change in its operation that will result in a change of domicile, and/or possible layoff of seniority employees, it shall notify the affected Local Union(s) in writing and then meet jointly with them to inform them of the proposed changes and to resolve questions raised in connection with the proposed change. During this joint meeting the Employer and the Union shall reduce to writing all agreed upon issues and both parties shall sign the written document in acknowledgement of such agreement. The parties shall also reduce to writing all unresolved issues, if any, and they shall be referred directly to the appropriate Regional Change of Operations Committee. This meeting shall be completed where practical at least forty-five (45) days prior to the proposed change. The change may not be implemented until the forty-five (45) days' notice is provided and the meeting is completed unless the operational change is dictated by emergency conditions. The Union shall not unreasonably delay the scheduling or completion of the requested meeting. Any unresolved issues reflected in Section (c) below, which have been reduced to writing, will be resolved pursuant to that Section. In all locations where the Employer implements "satellite" facilities, the Employer shall meet with the affected Local Union(s) and discuss the issues covered by this Article. (b) Any agreed to change of operations reached by the Local Union(s) and the Employer shall be reduced to writing and filed with the Joint National Change of Operations Committee. It is understood that a regional area representative of the affected region(s) shall sit on the Joint National Change of Operations Committee. ...[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue] [/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue][COLOR=Black]As far as the affected feeder drivers:[/COLOR][/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue][B]Article 38 Change of Operations [/B](3) In a Change of Operations affecting feeder drivers, the following language will apply: Whenever a center is partially closed and the[B] feeder work is transferred to or absorbed by another center, all feeder drivers, in seniority order, will have the option of following the available work and have their seniority dovetailed in the new center or be allowed to exercise their seniority in their present center[/B], and take whatever jobs become open as a result of other employees following the work or taking a layoff. If a senior feeder driver elects to take a job which has been transferred out, the displaced employee(s) will fill the vacated job(s) by seniority until the next bid. ... [/COLOR][/LEFT] [/QUOTE]
