Dear Fellow Screening Officers,<\/p>\n
On May 17 and on July 24, 2013 there was a posting in regards to the seniority list errors, procedures on how to submit inquiry forms and the process the IAM would follow to address the complaints submitted.<\/p>\n
The Seniority Committee has been meeting over the past few weeks to examine the little over 40 complaints that were handed in by Screeners.<\/p>\n
As a result of a few complaints where the committee was not able to come to a conclusion on the proper seniority date due to lack of supporting documentation, it has been decided that they will be sent arbitration on September 17, 2013 before Arbitrator Keller. <\/p>\n
Once the decision is received, a corrected seniority list will be posted prior to the next shift bids and all members with complaints will be contacted with an explanation and be given a copy of the arbitrator\u2019s decision, if applicable.<\/p>\n
In Solidarity,<\/p>\n
