Bid route cut. Can I file 9.5?

[TopsyKrets]

Long story short, got my own route not too long ago. I do not have 4 years in with the company yet, but I am a bid driver since I have my own route.

Problem is, management will cut my route once a week and put all my stops on a junk route and let a coverage driver run it. It’s basically all my stuff but under a different route name.

Anyone know if I can still file 9.5 grievances if they are doing this? I’m in the southern region.

I’d like an answer to this. I’m in the same boat every week with my route cut on mondays

Yes. You can file for Monday separately (no penalty pay) or in combination with days on your actual route. It’s not your fault they renamed your route.

I asked my BA this morning as i filed my 9.5, he said it doesn’t matter if they cut your route. You can still file and get paid triple time for all hours over 9.5. Just because the company cuts routes it doesn’t mean you can’t file

If you have 22.4s You can file 9.5 no matter what route you're doing.

Time and a half. Not triple time

 

[542thruNthru]

Time and a half. Not triple time

Time and a half on top of the time and a half you already made.

Western only provides following your work for permanent changes. The company's way around that, keep changing your route, so the changes are always temporary.

The southwest luckily has more protection from that.

I don't know how this hasn't become a major proposal in all areas. It gives the company a way to mess with driver's that don't tow the line.

Here you bump the lowest seniority driver in your loop or take your place by seniority of non bid drivers. You also have to be notified 60 min before start time so that you can make your decision.

That's bassically how it works here in practice, as a function of seniority.

If you have a bid route…cut or not you should be protected. File early and file often!
