[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 3432290, member: 14176"] Central Region Language: Article 3, Section 18 Each local may elect to follow this procedure for cover driver work assignment or continue the practice that presently exists in their local union area. Bid coverage drivers shall be used to fill absenteeism, vacations, employees’ time off on disability or worker’s compensation, over- flow work and volume fluctuations. The Employer shall determine how many coverage jobs are needed in each package center in a building. These coverage jobs and any non-bid areas that run on a regular basis will be offered to the non- bid guaranteed employees in seniority order, as described in Article 12, Section 1, of this Supplemental Agreement, within that center. This area will then become their permanent area or job. Any area or coverage job, as described above that has not been selected shall be assigned. Coverage work that will be in existence for a full week shall be selected each Friday by the coverage drivers in seniority order in that center. In the event an employee elects work that will be in existence for more than one (1) week, they shall be required to perform that work for the duration of its existence. When coverage work is not available on a weekly basis, cover drivers will work as directed. [/QUOTE]
