 The Organization's Claim appears to have been triggered by the Carrier furloughing a number of assigned Carmen effective December 1, 1982. Following a furlough, the Organization asserts the Carrier assigned carmen's duties to the clerical forces, thereby depriving the five Claimants herein of an opportunity to do the work. The Organization views the Carrier's actions as violating Rules 32(a) and 85 and particularly the following parts of the Rules:



The Organization claims the Carmen's craft has performed the disputed duties exclusively at St. Paul as well as other locations. The work in question involves the checking of repair bills, making corrections, numbering, batching, and filing thereof, as well as the handling of joint car inspections.

 Our reading of the record fails to disclose any basis upon which this Board could hold that Rules 32(a) and 85 grant the disputed work to the Carmen. In the absence of specific Agreement language, the organization has the burden of establishing by competent evidence that this work in question has by practice been performed by Carmen on a system-wide basis. This holding is based upon a prior identical claim involving the same parties. In Second Division Award 10784, the Board found the Carrier:

As in Second Division Award 10784, the record in this case clearly shows the same evidence of non-exclusivity was established by the Carrier. Accordingly, the Organization has failed to support its burden of proof by probative evidence that the disputed work belongs to the Carmen on a system-wide basis.
