[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 4577054, member: 14176"] Seasonal employees are covered under Art 1 of the Central Region Supplement, while Vacation Replacements are covered in Article 16. Apples and oranges in my opinion....while neither supercede Article 40 of the National Master that reads: [I]Section 1—Air Drivers (a) Air driver work shall consist of delivery and pickup of air packages which, because of time and customer commitments, cannot be reasonably performed by regular package drivers. Such work may include: (1) Delivery of air packages which the regular delivery drivers cannot deliver within guaranteed time commitments. (2) Delivery of air packages arriving at the facility after regular drivers have been dispatched. (3) Delivery and pick up of air packages on weekends and holidays. (4) On Call Air pickups. (5) Pick up at air counters and drop boxes. The Company shall not expand the utilization of part-time employees to pick up drop boxes, including those containing ground packages. The Company shall provide the International Teamsters Union with a report no later than March 1, 2013 and, thereafter, an annual report by August 15th of each year for the prior contract year identifying for each Local Union the total number of drop boxes being picked up by regular full-time package drivers, full-time air/combo drivers, and part-time air drivers. The ratio of drop boxes picked up by regular full-time package drivers, full-time air/combo drivers and part-time air drivers shall be maintained (within two (2) percentage points) during the term of this Agreement. Additional drop boxes will be picked up by the same ratio of regular full-time drivers, full-time air/combo drivers and part-time air drivers as established by the March 1, 2013 report. The size and dimensions of drop boxes existing on February 1, 2013, and those added thereafter, shall not be increased, without the consent of the Union. (6) Additional late air pickups.[/I] Nowhere does it say air drivers are a "Plan B" for left over ground packages (except at late pickups and drop boxes, where the regular driver has already left), and to ever acknowledge that it is,....would be Pandora's Box and needs to stay closed, in my opinion.
