The AGREED to MOU states....." 22. Card Check and Neutrality. As to any non-union common carrier freight entity that the Employer, its parent or holding company or subsidiaries of the Employer buys, establishes or maintains, the parties to this Restructuring Plan agree that, as soon as a Teamster Local Union shows the entity authorization cards signed by the majority of employees in the bargaining unit, the Local Union will be recognized as the exclusive bargaining representative for those employees.

The Employer or its affiliated companies will remain neutral if the Local Union seeks to represent unrepresented employees for this new entity. Neutrality means that the new entity will not make statements or take other actions opposing or advocating unionization. The new entity shall not demean the Union as an organization or its representatives as individuals. The new entity will inform all managerial employees and supervisors of their obligation under this neutrality agreement and will take prompt action to correct any violation of this Section 22. Disputes regarding the application of this Section 22 shall be resolved on an expedited basis by the Subcommittee....."

SO, why is this an issue for the last 6 months!.....KK

Why is it an issue to who?
The IBT, YRC, the Locals, or the guys, or Reddaway?

To those who agreed to # 22 in the MOU....why have they not been allowed to Unionize by YRCW if THEY agreed to the language THEY signed in the MOU....Cammack is a IBT VP....why has he been stonewalled by the IBT AND YRCW???.....KK

Is this Cammack somebody who may have had something to do with "authorizing" a strike or walkout?

Really 6 months is more than enough. I think the drivers have been more than fair...
Is six months what the teamsters call expedited?
 
yeah, sorta/kinda!

If you are interested, he has quite a resume and one heckuva good guy.

straight shooter and a realist.

I saw that he won some kind of labor leader award in 2011......What i was looking for is if anybody knew who may have given the go-ahead........I was glad to have seen that it was not a wildcat because that would have caused problems. What I've gathered is that the local informed the company of the intent the previous day......I personally believe the axe should fall on some top Reddaway guys and the corporate YRC overseers of the regionals to knowinglly allow this to go so far......If there is anything we do not need it is bad publicity about workstoppages and any management who took such a stupid risk should be gone today.
 
Reddaway her in Salt Lake City has pretty much all the managment that were YFS managers at 881 running the place.
Hell they even got the Felon janitor they canned at YRC cleaning the place...
 
It seems the company is claiming the union violated the Reddaway Card Check agreement, which is a bit different than the MOU CC agreement. The union is also claiming the company stalled, in the agreed to remedy, to the claims the company has made. The remedy is arbitration and that is set for this week.
