If you ask me the arbitration hurts the west employees. Reasons: outsorcing will occur if the arbitration happens there will be no flexibility. We are stuck without our holidays, sicktime, vacations, short-term disability that are currently superior. We get nothing but money that will go to the SKY HIGH Ins costs that the East currently pay. If it gets settled out of arbitration there could be things in the transition talks that save some field stations bring vacations to reasonable years of service and holidays and sicktime. And also raise pay at the same time. for both sides. If all you people care about is money and not brothers in sisters in Field Stations than you are not a true UNION BROTHER/SISTER.

the arbitration award benefits the 'active' east employees immediately with big wage gains, retro pay of thousands per employee, and guarantees 3% annual raises until a new agreement. In fact the wage snapback would already have 3% tacked on.
It affects the westies directly in that they are in section 6 negotiations already and having the east making tons more will strengthen the westie hand.

Any word on talks?
There west is not in section 6 negotiations, the TWU is no longer is their certified representative. They are working under their old TUW CBA until a transition agreement is negotiated.
The former AMTs under the IBT were in Section 6 before the merger.

I can't find a thing on the website but the shop stewards told us tonight that the company went to Judge Mitchell to file an injunction .I guess to keep this thing from going to arbitration. I consider it rumor till I see something offical.
There is no judge, the Change of Control Arbitration is for the IAM/US East Fleet and M&R CBAs. The Arbitor hearing the grievance is Richard Bloch.
It has nothing to do with anything on the west, it only applies to East and the rates of pay and raises.
Judge Mitchell cannot rule on the CBA, he all ready approved it with the Change of Control Language.
The company is not in Chapter 11 anymore, he has nothing to do with the CBA and the Grievance Procedure.

700,
You must be confused, I did'nt comment on the arbitration issue, I commented on the bungled Force Majeur Issue.

700 that's what I was thinking but more than one person told me this. Oh well maybe the same person started one rumor. But the one thing they all had in common was that the company walked.
From what I understand, 700 is correct on the arbitration.
Where is the company gonna walk? They have agreed to the arbitration.
Read the post again.
The top part is for you and the bottom is a comment on this TOPIC, not you straying off topic.

This is the time the IAM can take back every contracted out fleet service station. Strength is in numbers.700, Just another one of your meaningless, confused replies. :blink:
