 (Brotherhood Railway Carmen/Division of TCU PARTIES TO DISPUTE: (

STATEMENT OF CLAIM :

 1. That the Missouri Pacific Railroad Company violated Rule 12 of the controlling agreement of September 1, 1988, as amended, when General Car Foreman Kipp refused to post job bulletin Y-8 in the Settegast yard due to a vacancy which is required as per Rule 12 of the controlling agreement.

 2. That accordingly, the Missouri Pacific Railroad Company be ordered to compensate Carman C. Miller in the amount of twelve (12) hours per day for each day that he was nut allowed to fill this vacancy, commencing on January 25, 1987 and continuing until violation is corrected.

 FINDINGS :

 The Second Division of the Adjustment Board upon the whole record and all the evidence, finds that:

 The carrier or carriers and the employe or employee involved in this dispute are respectively carrier and employee within the meaning of the Railway Labor Act as approved June 21, 1934.

 This Division of the Adjustment Board has jurisdiction over the dispute involved herein.

The Organization contends that the first sentence of Rule 12 (c), reading:

was violated when Carrier failed to temporarily bulletin Carmen Job Y-8 in the Settegast Train Yard when the incumbent was unable to fill the assignment account being laid up because of an on-duty injury. The Organization contends that the incumbent notified his Foreman that he would be off work more than fifteen days. During this time the Carrier filled the vacancy on "an as needed basis."

 From the facts before us it seems conclusive that Carrier knew that the vacancy on Job Y-8 was known to be of "fifteen (15) days or more duration." The facts are also conclusive that the vacancy was filled during this period. The literal language of the Rule requires, when two conditions are met, knowledge that the vacancy will extend beyond fifteen days and the vacancy is to be filled, that the vacancy be bulletined. This was not done and the Claim will be sustained.

 The amount initially claimed was for 12 hours pay, five days per week, until the violation was corrected. There is no basis to award more than 8 hours pay for each scheduled workday. Accordingly, the amount claimed will be reduced to 8 hours pay per day. Also, there is evidence that Job Y-8 was abolished due to change of assignments as of March 3, 1987. Carrier's liability will terminate on that date. Accordingly, the Claim is sustained for 8 hours pay at straight time rates, for each day, except Fridays and Saturdays, commencing January 25, 1987, and ending March 3, 1987.
