Common use of EXTRABOARDS Clause in Contracts

EXTRABOARDS. The Company reserves the right to establish, maintain, alter, eliminate, or change extraboards at locations where the necessity of the service requires. Senior- ity choice will determine the operators who are assigned to the extraboards. The extraboard to which a new operator is assigned will be designated by the operator’s seniority bid. Seasonal opera- tors will rotate on the extraboard and will be eligible to bid on designated runs and hold-downs only. Part-time operators will rotate on a separate extraboard and will not rotate on the full-time extraboard. The order of assignment for extraboard work is full- time/seasonal extraboard operators, regular operators who have declared a willingness to work extra, part-time operators, regular operators required to work extra, and rentals. Regular operators who have declared a willingness to work extra and regular opera- tors required to work extra include pre-assigned regular operators. Full-time extraboard operators who are available for service 12 days in a payroll period will receive a biweekly guarantee of 80 hours at the prevailing federal minimum wage rate. Available for service means that an operator must be promptly accessible by telephone or be present at the garage or terminal if directed by the Company. Holiday pay is in addition to the biweekly guarantee. When an extraboard operator transfers from one board to another after learning two routes of the board to which the opera- tor transfers, the operator will be placed on the extraboard for work. Extraboard operators must qualify for all runs serviced by their extraboard within 30 days from the date assigned. An extraboard operator who fails to become qualified within such period will be removed from the board and must learn all routes. Extraboard operators entitled to an assignment over a route they have not learned may be removed from the board and required to ride the trip and learn the route. This provision will not apply to an operator at any away-from-home location.

An extraboard extra operator who fails to become qualified within such period will be removed from the board and must learn all routes. Extraboard operators entitled to an assignment over a route they have not learned may be removed from the board and required to ride the trip and learn the route. This provision will not apply to an operator at any away-from-home location. If business plans indicate a potential operator or equipment shortage, the Company may assign a regular operator, part-time operator, or rental bus ahead of available extraboard operators. This will permit the Company to assign regular operators to assignments that will allow them to work and return home to be available to pull their next scheduled run. It will also permit the Company to assign rentals or part-timers to assignments that will allow them to work and return home before their available period ends. The first-up extraboard operator missing an assignment under this provision is entitled to a claim under the runaround provision. (a) Extraboard Run Assignments Extraboard operators assigned to a regular run will be paid for protection up to the sign-on time of the run. Extraboard operators assigned to an extra section, a charter, a deadhead, or to DHOC will be paid for protection from report time according to instructions up to the actual time of departure. Protection will be paid at the protection rate. Extraboard operators placed on protection who are released without receiving an assignment will be guaranteed a minimum of two hours pay at the protection rate. Runs will be assigned at the specified assignment time in the Run Guide or 30 minutes prior to departure time. Doubles, deadheads, and DHOC will be assigned at least 15 minutes prior to scheduled departure time, if known, or when they develop. When simultaneous assignments occur, the first-up operator will make his choice on available work, the second-up operator will make his choice of the remaining available work, and so on. If, after making a choice, the run or work the operator selected is canceled, he will remain first-up for the next known assignment after the other simultaneous assignments occur, without a bump. Extraboard operators assigned to straight-away runs (a run that requires operators to secure their rest before returning to their home terminal) will be assigned the entire run. However, upon arrival at the away-from-home location where an extraboard is established, operators may elect to vacate the run and be placed on the extra board by notifying Operations Support Center at the time they sign in at the layover location. Operators will then fall under all provisions of the First-In, First-Out language except that the Layover and Meal Allowance provisions will not apply. This does not apply to extraboard operators assigned to a turn-around run (a run in which the operator is not required to secure his rest before returning home). Open regular runs will be assigned to the first-up extraboard operator from the location where the run originates. If no extraboard operators from the location where the run originates are available, the run will then be assigned board-to-board under normal first in, first-out rules. When operators deadheading buses are required to secure their rest at or near an extraboard location, they will be relieved according to the provisions of First-In, First-Out language. (b) First-ln, First-Out Extraboard assignments will be made on the basis of first-in, first-out. Operators returning to their home location, who have secured their rest at an away location, and who still have available driving time within their 10 hours, may be first-up for assignment. The Company, at its option, may release such operators and place them on the bottom of the board or on protection within two hours after arrival. Four hours after being placed on protection, operators who have not received an assignment will be placed on the bottom of the extraboard. If an assignment is received, the assignment must be round trip or operators will be returned home immediately upon completion of a one-way assignment, either DHOC or other available work. No runarounds will apply when returning operators to their home location under this provision. Operators returning to their home extraboard within eight hours of the original report at their home extraboard who still have available driving time may be first-up for an assignment if they have sufficient hours to complete the assignment. At the Company’s option, operators may be placed on the bottom of the board or placed on protection within two hours after arrival. If placed on protection, an operator who has not received an assignment within eight hours of his original report will be released and placed on the bottom of the extraboard. Extraboard operators at an away-from-home location without an assignment, and not on temporary transfer, will be worked first-in, first-out to or towards their home terminal except in the following two circumstances: • When the extraboard is depleted, in which case operators may be used on any assignment in any direction. • An extraboard operator put to bed at an away-from-home location will not be called to work after two hours following his release from duty until he has secured his nine-hour rest, unless the extraboard is depleted. The runaround provision (Article O-2 § b) will not apply to the extraboard operator securing his rest from the end of the second hour through the ninth hour. Operators will be first-out for assignments going directly to their home terminal ahead of drivers going toward their home terminal. However, all operators based in locations beyond the maximum driving distance will be considered as home terminal operators of the location at the maximum driving distance. An assignment that takes operators to a location closer to their home location in terms of distance or time will be considered “toward.” When the extraboard is depleted, operators may be used on any assignment in any direction. Upon completion of an assignment, an extraboard operator will be placed on the extraboard at the scheduled arrival time of the assignment unless the operator is more than 60 minutes late. Extraboard operators arriving more than 60 minutes late will be placed on the extraboard at their actual arrival time. For multiple-section SOBOs and charters, the first operator arriving and signing in at the completion of the assignment will set the extraboard placement/schedule time which sets the 60-minute window. Operators on deadheads will have their extraboard placement time set by the scheduled deadhead driving time. Extraboard operators on multiple-section charters, SOBO’s, schedules, deadheads or DHOC assignments that arrive within 60 minutes of the set arrival time of the multiple-section assignments will be placed on the extraboard in the order assigned at the point of origin. When two or more operators arrive at their home board at the same time, they will be placed on the bottom of the extraboard or remain first-up in the following order: 1 The order of the previous report for assignment.

EXTRABOARDS. The Company reserves the right to establish, maintain, alter, eliminate, or change extraboards at locations where the necessity of the service requires. Senior- ity Seniority choice will determine the operators who are assigned to the extraboards. The extraboard to which a new operator is assigned will be designated by the operator’s 's seniority bid. Seasonal opera- tors operators will rotate on the extraboard and will be eligible to bid on designated runs and hold-downs only. Part-Part- time operators will rotate on a separate extraboard and will not rotate on the full-time extraboard. The order of assignment for extraboard work is full- full-time/seasonal extraboard operators, regular operators who have declared a willingness to work extra, part-time operators, regular operators required to work extra, and rentals. Regular operators who have declared a willingness to work extra and regular opera- tors operators required to work extra include pre-assigned regular operators. Full-time extraboard operators who are available for service 12 days in a payroll period will receive a biweekly guarantee of 80 hours at the prevailing federal minimum wage non-driving rate. Available for service means that an operator must be promptly accessible by telephone or be present at the garage or terminal if directed by the Company. Holiday pay is in addition to the biweekly guarantee. When an extraboard operator transfers from one board to another after learning two routes of the board to which the opera- tor operator transfers, the operator will be placed on the extraboard for work. Extraboard operators must qualify for all runs serviced by their extraboard within 30 days from the date assigned. An extraboard operator who fails to become qualified within such period will be removed from the board and must learn all routes.

The order of assignment for extraboard work is full- full-time/seasonal extraboard operators, full-time/seasonal extraboard operators on their day off, full-time regular operators who have declared a willingness signed for work on the superboard (with hours to perform the work extraand who would not miss their regular run), part-time operators, regular operators required to work extra, and rentals. Regular operators who have declared a willingness to work extra and regular opera- tors required to work extra include pre-assigned regular operators, and rentals. Full-time extraboard operators who are available for service 12 days in a payroll period will receive a biweekly guarantee of 80 hours at the prevailing federal minimum wage rate$375.00. Available for service means that an operator must be promptly accessible by telephone or be present at the garage or terminal if directed by the Company.
