Modified Attendance Control for CWA

[Dont call me Shirley]

Word is that the ACP for customer service has been modified a bit --- no idea if this a result of the CWA grievance or not.

AFAIK here are some of the changes:

Late clock in 1-6 mins - .25 points
Late clock in 7-15 mins - .5 points
(instead of .5 for any late less than 15 mins.

Absence due to sick child - One point (old policy was two points, absence other than persona illness)

It seems there are still some differences between the programs for airport and res agents (even though same union, same "class and craft".) Not sure of details. Can someone help out?

A bit of step in the right direction.

There is, of course, no word of this on the cwa.net site.

The IAM Fleet group got the same memo in regard to these changes. Not sure if the Company had a change of heart, or if the Unions pushed for the changes....

The company also acknowledged the work the IAM did, especially AGC Frank O’Donnell, along with other union groups within the airline in getting the company to modify the Attendance Policy. Frank has been an advocate of making changes to the current policy that would make it more member friendly and reduce the severity of some provisions of the plan. The company has agreed to some easing of the policy that will benefit members and is implementing those changes immediately.

The company also acknowledged the work the IAM did,

CWA dose not recognize the company ACP.CWA contact has sick leave language. Good for IAM to help soften the policy if and fact they recognize and accept the company’s policy
