Important seniority check reminder to all Local 505 Fleet Service, GSE, and FAC.
Our Contracts contain, in Article 11, the process of how and when you can protest an error in your seniority. Please be aware that you may ONLY protest the most recent seniority roster.
For Fleet Service this will be the roster published on January 31st and July 31st of each year. For Title II the protest process will be from the roster published on January 31st of each year. Any Member who wishes to file a protest has 30 days from the dates above to file; the protest can only be based on errors from or between those dates.
Many of you will remember we had the “Javits” decision back in 2020 which produced the Integrated Seniority List for the TWU – IAM Association. Joshua Javits from Dispute Resolution Services was appointed as the neutral to assist American Airlines and the Association with the seniority integration because of the AA and US Airways merger. Javits began this task in 2016 and concluded with the final list in 2020, which is the basis for our current historical seniority lists. Between 2016 and through 2020 there were multiple protest windows for Members to dispute their seniority ranking. After the 2020 final list no more protests prior to 2020 were considered.
Under the current contract, Article 11 (L), there is language regarding seniority protest procedures. Please be aware of dates and the protest windows, get in the habit of checking your seniority during those times. If you see an error with your seniority as published, reach out to a Shop Steward to file a protest. A Seniority Protest Review Panel is being formed, including TWU Representative, that will review and make a determination if adjustment is necessary. Protest forms will be available beginning February 1, 2023.
