Rescind all past concessions and the MOU. Make us completely whole and return all that we have sacrificed to keep this company alive.
This section of the NMFA should accomplish that – that is unless, the grievance process has become a total farce, existing now only to entirely satisfy what the employer claims they cannot survive without – which is pretty much everything they are challenged on. In short, these clowns are pulling laughable, contradictory crap out of their rears from decades ago and winning in grievance.
Section 5. Riders
Upon the effective date of this Agreement, all existing or previously
adopted Riders which provide less than the wages, hours, and
working conditions specifically established by this Agreement and
Supplemental Agreements shall become null and void. Thereafter,
the specific provisions of this Agreement and applicable
Supplemental Agreements shall apply without being subject to variance
by Riders. This Section shall not be applied or interpreted to
eliminate operational, dispatch, or working rules not specifically set
forth in this Agreement and Supplemental Agreements.
