[QUOTE="Nimnim, post: 3773864, member: 28856"] You've listed multiple things that could qualify you for the $1 skill pay. Did you receive a $1 raise when moving to sorter? If so then you have skill pay and should have received all other raises you would have gotten on top of that. As far as instant skilled worker raise, that isn't instant but if performing a position that is considered skilled you would receive the $1 more while performing the work. To keep the raise you need to have passed a test for the position and sometimes if management feels like it, will just apply the raise when you are assigned to a skilled area. Getting skilled pay is increasingly limited with all the automation and tech being introduced. Small sorters used to be skilled but with the introduction of the NGSS new people do not get the skill pay, same with the primary sort as they have been given scanners that tell them which belt to sort to. DMP or whatever that is sounds like PSC in my area and only a hazmat responder should be dealing with the leakers initially, if determined safe then non responders can rewrap them, neither of which is a skilled position. You've been here about 6 years, talk to your shop steward. Each location is different because of various things and they'll know what applies to your location. [/QUOTE]
