FEEDER DRIVERS – JOB SELECTION. A Feeder Driver is defined as any employee whose work day or any part of their work day which exceeds one (1) hour is done in a tractor-trailer. It is understood that these employees are paid based on the equipment they drive and there may be employees who have seniority in this classification but drive equipment other than a tractor-trailer. Any new tractor-trailer work will be bid in the feeder classification. A Package Car Driver(s) who is presently performing tractor-trailer work that had been assigned to the package car seniority list will be red circled in that job. Once a red circled employee vacates his/her package bid (vacate does not apply if the position is filled by another red circled driver in a regular periodic package bid), that tractor-trailer work will then be bid in the feeder driver classification. This paragraph only applies to job bidding. Feeder drivers desiring to bid on this work must be pre-qualified. The Employer will provide the appropriate training material for the employee’s use on his/her own time in order to pre-qualify.
