That's a really important question we'll have to wait and see what happens with our next paycheck, but it certainly feels like they owe us $0.70 over the last year in the form of a retro check!

I can tell you that this will be the first time in history bat full-time employees still in progression received the gwi! This will be an historical event and it all started with the grievance you see posted on my thread! All praise to you YAHUAH!

Because it’s unprecedented. I am in progression so it would be another $1.45 in raise increases which is awesome!

My BA said it's a historical event. Yes correct! When I file the grievance you had no idea how many people telling me that I was crazy and that we would never get the GWI while still in progression in spite of what I understood the contract to read.
Isn’t that for August 1, 2018? So people with seniority after that date get progression but not the other yearly increase, correct?Full-time seniority employees still in progression with a seniority date before August 1st are contracted to receive the yearly wage increase along with the bare minimum wage progression rate!?!

Yes they will get the GWI after they finish progression.

I'm in progression and got the .70 from last year. Due to having been a RTD (part time driver) that went full time I was making 25.83 at the time. So I got .70. Here's the rub, anyone who was an RTD driver that went full time AFTER August 1st of last year went full time making $27.75 or $1+ more than me and over $2 more than some other guys who went full time prior to August 1st of last year. Union basically said "tough cookies" and won't do anything about it. I hit 36 months and went back above what they're making, but there are several guys in our center who have been driving for a long time still making $25.xx while these guys that just went full time are making $27.xx
