Shift Differential, Where is it, and why are we not getting it?

According to page 16, on the TSA RFP information sheet, we should be receiving the following:

Night/shift premium of 10% for any hours worked between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.

Sunday premium of 25% for any hours worked on Sundays.

Night/shift premium and Sunday premium if worked concurrently (10% night and 25% Sunday, for a total of 35%.)

Double pay for holidays worked.

Overall, we would be far better off with this plan than the one that is currently in place.

As you can see, our wonderful Union has done a spectacular job of selling us short. How could they not be aware of this? This is something that we have a big problem with! This proves that CAS and the Union are in bed together!

Once again, why are we paying them?

  1. agree! agree!! there are more money we could get from CAS, but the great Union had negotiated a contract prohibited us getting it. How about money based on your certifications? Performance bonus based on your TIP score??

  2. "Sunday premium of 25% for any hours worked on Sundays." that would be a great incentive to work on Sundays, thus increase attendance rate.. but CAS doesn't care, they rather fire employees than figure out a way to boost attendance rate and morale.
