Does the CWA contract become effective today, Jan 1st or does it have to wait until the judge says it's ok? The company couldn't wait till the end of the pay period to kick in the pay CUT. Will they wait to the next pay period to start the new pay rate? Just curious...maybe somebody knows.
 
Thats a good question, even my station manager does not know. Can't even fill out my pay sheet till we find out, because if it does not start today, then today is still a paid Holiday. Plus hours worked on Sunday would qualify for shift diff. Hope we can get the answer.
 
The contract must first be approved by the bankruptcy court. That is to be heard on Jan 06. That is my understanding.
 
Just called my supervisor, she read the memo to me, the old rules are still in effect until the judge rules on the 6th. Option 1 employees get Holiday pay for today, Option 2 employees will receive a DAT for today. Hope this info helps.
