[QUOTE="hypocrisy, post: 932056, member: 9500"] I took from the OP that it was something like this: Bob, 5 years senior, starts at 1700 and works to 2230 and is sent home. Jill , 1 year senior, starts at 1730 and works til 2300 and is sent home. So say Jill is an unloader and Bob loads trailers. If, after 2300, the Supervisor asks Jill to stay past 3.5 and finish up loading a late trailer then I would say there is a legitimate grievance there, especially if this is a recurring thing. Now if it's just that Jill takes her sweet ass time getting off the clock at 2310 then it's not really extra work. Damn that Jill. It would be reasonable to assume that management could have foreseen that the possibility of extra work would arise within that half hour and should have asked Bob if he wanted to stay. The blanket policy of sending people home after 3.5 would also help bolster your argument because by not adjusting start times to reasonably place senior people in the position to be available for extra work they are attempting to circumvent the language and use less expensive lower seniority people to perform the work.
