FINDINGS:
The Third 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.
As Third Party in Interest, the International Brotherhood of Firemen
and Oilers was advised of the pendency of this dispute, but chose not to file
a Submission with the 3oard.
The Claims are for janitorial work performed on five separate occasions in June 1989, at the Carrier
exclusively performed by the occupant(s) of Position No. 6017. (The same
position at issue was before the Board in Third Division Award 29132).
The Carrier essentially asserts that the janitorial work claimed is
performed by others as well as the Clerks at the locations involved. From our
review of the record, we agree with the Carrier that the Organization has not
sustained its burden o: proof. Therefore, the Claims are denied.
A W A R D
Claims denied.
