[QUOTE="Scooter1, post: 663260, member: 12495"] Employee should be held liable when violating the contract because it can undermine other employees. An example of this is employees working off the clock. We had an employee that would work through break without compensation. His excuse was he just wanted to clean up his area of packages so he could go home early. In reality he was robbing another employee of 10 minutes worth of work. This was in an air operation that only has a 3 hr guarantee, so 10 minutes is a good chunk of thier time. The employees complained to the union and the BA threatened to file charges against the employee for violating the contract. When I see employees working during break, I break it down to them this way. It may seem like only 10 minutes, but multiply by a week (5 days) and it becomes 50 minutes a week, a month and it's a full day work of work, a year and you have already worked approximately 2 1/2 weeks for free. I tell employees if they want to work for free, maybe they can stay after work (or come in during their vacation) and wash management's cars or make coffee for them. That way they are not affecting the pay of other union members. [/QUOTE]
