[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 1217686, member: 42554"] Package Drivers: New language regarding routes being broken out, basically the Company has to call them 90 minutes prior to start time to tell/leave message that your route is out today, and you have the option to bump the least senior driver in the loop or be utility for the day (must respond by 1 hour prior to start time). Idea is to make it difficult for the Company to just screw with drivers by breaking out routes. Also if one is permanently eliminated (broken out 3 days per week for a 30 day period) Driver has can file a grievance and invoke one of two options: 1. all routes that received work from permanently eliminated route shall be rebid amongst all drivers within a loop by seniority & odd man out becomes utility. 2. Only routes that received the work from the permanently eliminated route shall be re-bid amongst the affected drivers by seniority & odd man out becomes Utility. Local Union decides which option they will be applicable throughout their jurisdiction, and "work" is generally considered to be 1 hours worth, so that could be 1 stop or 20+. Helpers: Only utilized Oct 15th till Jan 15th (does not affect January vacation selection); Part time employees have first opportunity to perform work prior to hiring off street provided they can report to & complete their primary job. Includes air drivers. Off the street hires get "All Other" rate of pay while existing employees get $1/hr more than "All Other" (10/15-12/31). Any PT as Helper using any form of mechanized mode (bike, golf cart, etc) shall be paid their inside rate of pay (or Air Driver rate of pay) for all hours worked in that capacity. Mechanized only 10/15-12/31. No helpers may be utilized if any FT are laid off in Local's jurisdiction (so all of AZ for 104) Jan1-15th no mechanized & utilizing PT only paid $3/hr more than "All Other" rate of pay. No outside hires unless exhausted all PT. No forcing bid driver off their route for the purpose to utilize helpers. Combos: Basically if Combo has one good job & one crappy job, they can request vacated or newly created work and have 2 good jobs. Cover Drivers: Areas without ratios will meet and establish ratios. Cover working 5day/40hr week as Pkg Driver shall be considered Pkg Drivers as it applies to Saturday Air work (no more forcing to work Saturdays). Transfers: Package driver who transfers shall retain Company seniority for the purpose of fringe benefits but shall be placed at the bottom of the center seniority list for the purposes of layoff, rehire, bid, selection of vacation, [U]and transfers.[/U] Basically once you transfer you can't jump ahead of everyone and transfer again. The above are from my notes at the meeting today. [/QUOTE]
