[QUOTE="MyTripisCut, post: 5807656, member: 34797"] You’re right, but you highlighted the wrong part. The next sentence in that memo is where the language loses its teeth. From article 11 section v: (v) In any buildings without sufficient staffing to handle Saturday delivery needs after the process set forth above, the Local Union and the Company will meet and resolve on a local basis. If not re- solved within sixty (60) days of ratification, the matter may be re- ferred to the Co-Chairs of the National Negotiating Committee or their designees for resolution. This was discussed earlier On BC, I think in November. If your building or area or local hasn’t resolved a lack of Saturday staffing, then this section applies. Sean pounded his chest on CNN saying no more sixth punches, no one hired before August 1 can be forced to Saturdays. It’s only half the story. You CAN be forced to a T-S schedule. I think the problem here is your local refuses to acknowledge this so the company is just forcing 6th punches. You guys need to get to a local union meeting ASAP! Demand some answers from your representatives. [/QUOTE]
