[QUOTE="grgrcr88, post: 579582, member: 16611"] When a satelite route first goes into effect the company is to give the union a 45 day notice. Then a meeting is to be held open to all union members regarding the implementation(with company presenting the proposed change of operation). After the presentation and all questions answered there should be a vote by all attending on wether to be a stand alone center or a spin off center. If it is voted a stand alone the driver that takes it becomes the number 1 seniority driver in that center, however they cannot bid any available routes in their old center. The only way they could come back is if they were laid off and bumped back in. If it is voted a spin off then they stay on the seniority list in the original center. As for cover drivers they have 2 options, 1; drive to the satelite center from home and collect mileage pay 2; ride out with the driver that pulls the work out to the satelite center. The driver that bids the sattelite does not get mileage pay for his driving of personal vehicle to/from the satelite center. The driver that pulls the trailer to the sat center gets .08 cents an hour extra for the day. All day every day they pull the trailer. You should make sure the maintenance work on the vehicles in the sat center is being done by your center mechanics and not being hired out to some non union shop! In our building they send Saturday air drivers out together to trade out the trucks for PMI etc... [/QUOTE]
