[QUOTE="JDAM00, post: 1166232, member: 44120"] Thanks guys. The sups have been putting newer employees on heavy loads, and have been helping them because the new guys don't know any better. The former steward told me to talk to these new employees and when a sup starts to load their trucks, to immediately stop working, stand there and watch. According to the rules, a sup can load a truck when he is training someone. (Among other reasons, egress, or emergency situation like power was out for 2 hours earlier) Only one can be working at a time when training. If asked the newer employee is to give the sup this info, and If the sup tells the newer employee to keep working anyway, or to ignore it, he should listen to the sup, and the union will handle it from there. I'm not sure how happy I am with that, having the new employee take that on, especially if they are not union and could just be let go, or never called in. I need to handle it. Where is this "rule" found? Is it directly in the contract or is it mixed up somewhere in a policy and procedure book? When I inform management that he is not following procedure, I want to know exactly what it is, and l what to quote it. Thanks [/QUOTE]
