As reported at previous General Membership Meetings - the Union filed a grievance in regards to being denied the floater day when Heritage Day was proclaimed. The Grievance went to Arbitration and the union was not successful in winning this arbitration. The result means that should there be a third day between Christmas and New Years in which most departments are closed, the union members are required to account for this day. Please contact your manager to make the appropriate arrangements. [Sep 9, 2009 09:31 AM]
