Communications Workers of America

IROPS…cancellations, ground stops, and diversions will impact all stations, please familiarize yourself with Article 6.
Kincare (ORD)...Is for the purpose in which it states, not for the prevention of an RL. If you are having problems signing into MyTime, please call the DOC or Allocators beforehand. If you need to take Kincare during a Mando, use the MyTime system. Management may question your absence, so be ready to explain.
VTOs…are all going to be done through the MyTime system. Directions will be coming soon.
Safety…PLEASE DO NOT MOVE THE JETBRIDGE IF THE PCA/APU IS ATTACHED. REGARDLESS OF THE RAMP GUIDING YOU BACK! JETBRIDGE SAFETY (WEBREF).
RAMP CLOSED…Agents do not have to go down the stairs when the RAMP IS CLOSED! Please reference JETBRIDGE SAFETY (WEBREF).
Local Procedures…STOPS. If you are asked to sign and date any documents, politely decline. Once we became unionized, local procedures ended.

Management…If management requests a meeting, assert your rights. Politely pause the discussion and request your preferred union steward.

Uniform reminder...Wearing any devices capable of recording, such as PLAUD note pins, smart glasses, Meta Ray-Ban glasses, or similar items with photo or recording functions, is strictly forbidden—even if they have prescription lenses.

Work Strategies…If you have an On-the-Job Injury (OJI) and return to work on limited duty, please remind the DOC, Allocators or ATO CSM you are required to go to work strategies daily for 30mins.
Contract Interpretations…I am doing Zoom sessions going over the contract, if you are interested, please send me an email. It’s our responsibility to understand our contract. Article 6 (OVERTIME) is very confusing for everyone.

In Unity,

Anita Pearson
