Currently we have around 115 total drivers in our building.
We have 11 22.4 drivers, but run 22 routes every Saturday with 29 people scheduled T-S.
The 18 of us that were hired RPCD a year before our center even thought of running Saturday ground filed a grievance in October for the breach of contract of them forcing us working Saturdays.
According to the contract, we COULD be forced to work that schedule until October (which is 18 months after contract ratification) but are still forced to this day.
Our grievance went deadlocked at the local and regional level, and the day of the state hearing the company postponed (1 month ago).
Right now the union said the company is still in negotiations, but there IS NOTHING TO NEGOTIATE.
----
Yes, the company can force people to work IF AND ONLY IF the company has 25% of the driver force as 22.4s, but in this case we only have ~9%.
What do you guys suggest we do? It seems as if our union isn't doing anything and just letting the company take advantage of this even though it should have been prevented.
