YARDMASTER DEPARTMENT AWARDS
AWARDS 104 - "MAY" IS PERMISSIVE
Second Division Award No. 12202 (Fletcher) "The Rule uses the word `may' which is permissive, not mandatory, thus the Agreement does not require that in every small gang a lead workman be assigned. Moreover, in this instance it has not been demonstrated that any Carman has been required to `take the lead' or `assign and direct the work of other members of the gang' so as to establish entitlements as a lead workman." |
