PVD vs. PT Air Driver

If your part time you get a part time pension doesent matter how many hours you work

Well that's a problem. 55 hours a week is not part time. We need to get this fixed on our next contract.

File a grievance and force the company to post a FT job opening. Does not mean you will win the bid and you could lose all of your extra hours..

That's the thing, PVD's aren't even covered anywhere in the national or in the west. Idk where you are, but it may be in another supplement somewhere. We've always treated them under the provisions of seasonal package car drivers. As such, ground delivery is their primary job, and under that premise would get ground work during their allowed use. I'm just a dude on another keyboard, so again, I'd grieve it and make someone at a panel or higher either explain it to me, or pay me.

22.4 was a terrible job by the union last contract but completely ignoring the PVD issue and allowing the company to just do whatever for another 5 years might have been an even worse move.
