We are fielding as many questions as we can, the truth is that we have only had the same amount of time to review the “Highlights” as you have. We were only given “Highlights”. It is understood that they are verifying the final language so that it can be posted to our site and sent to your home address.

New hire employees currently on probation:

If you are currently on probation, you are considered an at-will employee, At-will employment is a term used in U.S. labor law for contractual relationships in which an employee can be dismissed by an employer for any reason (that is, without having to establish “just cause” for termination), and without warning,[1] as long as the reason is not illegal (e.g. firing because of the employee’s race or religion). When an employee is acknowledged as being hired “at will,” courts deny the employee any claim for loss resulting from the dismissal. Although you are a dues-paying Union Member, the Union is limited in regard to the representation we are allowed to provide. Please be mindful of your breaks and lunch periods and always be available in the event you are needed in your immediate work area.

Welcome Aboard,

Pat Kinnamon
TWU Chairman of Maintenance
