Vacation

Remember; BID vacation will always start on the first work day AFTER your regular days off. Please check the VC sheet to make sure you know when your bid vacation begins and it will also help if you put in for a vc week that becomes available to understand. The confusion is happening because the vacation sheets in the work areas show the technical week you picked starting Monday.

If you ask to view the actual VC bid (workbrain) that ADMIT shows-it will give you the “true” date. What is being posted in some Load Centers is causing some confusion. Be sure to check your bid vacation as needed. Admit is aware some workers are having issues with this and are working with them.

Chairwoman of MLS, Linda Dill
