These are just the regular jobs that the PX949 XT11 protects. There is always the unforeseen patches and CMS mishandling.  The XT11 is also the back-up board for the PX949 XS11 and is also called for the RV390 XS10 at times. Contact the LC/VLC at each location when you are called for yard jobs, CMS most certainly didn’t use the proper vacancy procedure and run-around claims are due.

*THE JOBS AT PS707 WILL SOON BE COVERED BY THE PS707 XT10.

                                                                  OAKLAND YARD JOBS

MARKUP & BUMPING RULES

A job must work 1 shift off the extra board before it is available for markup.  This applies to newly created jobs, as well as to spaces that become available upon being vacated by a regular assigned employee.

After a job has worked 1 shift off the extra board, it is available for bid. Regular assignments are awarded on a seniority basis 2 1/2 hours prior to their on duty time. If nobody claims a job when it first becomes biddable, it is biddable on following days in exactly the same way. 

Once you are awarded a regular assignment, you must work the job for a minimum of 1 shift.  After that, you can mark up on another assignment, vacate the job for the extra board, or make a 48 hour bump.

Bumps must be made no less than 48 hours in advance.  There is no Oakland yard requirement that the person you are bumping be on duty for the bump to be valid. 

When you are bumped, you have 8 hours from the time of notification to make a seniority move* (see note below).  Your options are: 1) trade spaces with the person who is bumping you, 2) bump someone holding another regular assignment (the 48 hour rule does not apply in this case), 3) apply to mark up on a biddable vacancy, 4) revert to the extra board.

The exact same options apply when your job is abolished or when its conditions change (e.g., changes to its start time, days off, or on-duty location).

Once you are on the extra board, you must remain there 10 daysbefore you can make a 48 hour bump.  However, you can mark up on a biddable vacancy provided you have been on the extra board for 24 hours OR have worked one shift off the extra board.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NOTE:  CMS is not always aware of the markup & bumping rules governing Oakland switchmen.  CMS may attempt to impose requirements on switchmen which do not apply to the Oakland terminal.  CMS may also award jobs inappropriately, denying work to the extra board. Please let me know when CMS fails to follow the Oakland terminal markup & bumping rules & I will attempt to straighten them out.  There may also be money claims involved, for someone first out on the extra board, or for someone denied a chance to markup on a job, and these should be pursued.

*(this provision is modified by the Roseville hub furlough agreement.  You have 48 hours to make a Hub seniority move under this 2000 Hub modification agreement.)
