Y THE LAKE ERIE AND EASTERN RAILROAD COMPANY Case No. 46
vs
BROTHERHOOD OF RAIUIAY AND STEAMSHIP CLERKS,
FREIGHT HANDLERS, EXPRESS AND STATION EMPLOYES
STATEMENT OF CLAIM
:
(a) Claim in behalf of the senior furloughed unassigned Group 1 employee in
Seniority District No. 17 for October 11,
1954
and subsequent dates for a
day's pay each day at the checkerts rate of pay account of violation of the
Clerksp Agreement at Glassport.
(b) Claim in behalf of the clerical employe regularly assigned at Glassport
Enginehouse for each day and each time employees not within the scope of the
Clerksq Agreement performed work included in that Agreement from September
19,
1954 and subsequent dates, until the violation is corrected. (CL-262)
FINDINGS
: The Board, upon the whole record and all the evidence, finds that:
The Carrier or Carriers and the employee or employees involved in this
dispute are respectively Carrier and Employee within the meaning of the Railway
Labor Act, as approved June 21,
1934.
The Board has jurisdiction over the dispute involved herein. The
parties to said dispute were given due notice of hearing thereon.
Where, as in the instant Glassport situation, the volume and extent of
Stores Department work is not sufficient to warrant establishing a District 17
clerical job at that location, the parceling out of the small amount of Stores
Department tasks as do exist among the Locomotive Department Clerk (District 28)
and Locomotive and Car Department Foreman at Glassport is not a violation of the
seniority district job groupings pattern described in the Clerksq Agreement. See
Award No. 6, Case No. 13, Special Board of Adjustment No. 122.
Further, the handling by Glassport supervisory employees on second and
third trick of a relatively minor amount of duties, essentially clerical in
character, but nevertheless long recognized as incidental to and constituting an
integral part of their total job content, does not contravene Rule l(e) as is
here alleged. See Award No. 1, Case No. 2, Special Board of Adjustment No. 122.
(a) Claim denied.
(b) Claim denied.
