under the radar
A Trained Professional
Yesterday we were told that, because of a rash of "tier three" accidents in the district, there will be no more radios in the cab of the package cars. We were also to sign a sheet that states that we will comply with this order. I will talk to my business agent before signing this.
Some drivers carry these huge contractors radios and put them on the dash which could obstruct one's view so I can somewhat understand the company's reasoning. But some of us have small radios that are not on or near the dash and we are being punished by this sweeping order.
I know there is a provision for radios in the contract but it is not specific to where it can be located. We were told to put them in the cargo area. In other words, "Don't carry a radio."
Anyone else experiencing this?
