PARTIES TO DISPUTE:
(CSX Transportation, Inc. (former Chesapeake and
( Ohio Railway Company)
STATEMENT OF CLAIM:
1. That the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad Company (CSX Transportation,
Inc.), hereinafter referred to as "carrier", violated the service rights of
Painter Dale Higgins, hereinafter referred to as "claimant", and the
provisions of Rule 11 of the controlling Agreement when on January 18, 1989
the carrier ignored the overtime board in violation of the aforementioned
agreement rule and worked Carman Dan Mullins eight (8) hours in the blast area
of the Paint Facility.
2. Accordingly, the claimant is entitled to be compensated for eight
(8) hours at the applicable rate of time and one-half for said violation.
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 employes involved in this
dispute are respectively carrier and employes 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.
Parties to said dispute waived right of appearance at hearing
thereon.
This Claim is one of three involving the application of the Painters'
Overtime Board at Carrier's Raceland Car Shops. During 1989, Carrier was
involved in a massive car repair project which taxed the capacity of its Paint
Shop. A considerable amount of overtime was worked during that time. On
occasion volunteer Carmen were used to supplement the Painters' Overtime
Board. Carrier contends that this was done only when the Painters' Overtime
Board was exhausted. The Organization argues that on the date of Claim, the
Painters' Overtime Board was not exhausted and, in fact, Claimant should have
been used for eight hours overtime before the Carman that was called was used.
