[QUOTE="Well-Known Member, post: 6167479, member: 85066"] For everyone, in the Central at least, this DVSP is following the contract. No Article 6 violation. Probably every other Supplement also. For the resignation part, you have to sign a form to resign per the contract. In this case, it is a DVSP form. [I]Central Region Supplement Article 2 Resignation When an employee notifies the Employer that they would like to resign, the Employer shall immediately notify the employee in writing of their right to have a steward present. Unless an employee waives their right to a steward in writing, the Employer must use a steward to witness the resignation. If an employee who is voluntarily resigning does not wish to have a steward present, they shall sign the approved resignation or Quit Statement.[/I] The employee is signing a form to separate from the company. The DVSP form. They may elect to have a Steward present if they want. If you do not have the years of service for a pension, you just leave, with a little bit of cash. For the retirement part... If you have the required years of service for a pension, you fill out your retirement paperwork and start drawing a pension after you separate from the company.
