PLBNO. 7566

AWARD NO. 217

Establishing whether the work belonged to BMWE-represented employees is a predicate element to the Claim. If the Organization establishes that the work was BMWE­ work and that the work was performed by subcontractors, then the Board can analyze the Carrier defense of unavailable equipment.

The Organization was made aware of the Carrier's position that the work was not exclusive. The Organization did not challenge the Carrier's position during the on­ property handling of the claim, merely asserting that it would continue to file claims. As a result, the Carrier's position went unchallenged, and the Organization has not established that this is exclusive work for BMWE-represented employees or adequately refuted the Carrier's position regarding the application of exclusivity.

Claim denied.
