definition of a bid job?

Why haven't you gone down to your locals union hall and obtained a copy of the collective bargaining agreement with said company.The company may be trying to skirt the contract if no one from the union is enforcing the rules of the labor agreement.What is spelled out in contract may be to your benefit or sometimes the company.These labor contracts have to be reported to the federal goverment.The Office of Labor-Management Standards(OLMS) is where you should find a copy of your contract.Go to their site and hit on "collective bargaining agreements".From there you can hit on a database for your unions contract with said company.If the contract is worth more than the paper it's printed on it should spell out the rules on job bids.Last thing,job bids can be based on seniority but also on your qualifications and job availability.

 

I believe union members asked for and got an exclusive group . PM a forum staff and ask how to join .
