The Union has been notified that production next Wednesday the 24th is down due to a shortage of engines. The engines are enroute by ship in the Atlantic. Plans are to make up the production on Friday, December 3.

According to committeman that I spoke to, we will get short work week IF our total hours are less than 40. So who do we believe? Why do they always have more than one story.

According to my committeeman we will not get short week. Said we are only guaranteed 95%, and 38 hours is 95% of 40.

I called Steve Stone about this. He sent out an email from the benefits book: Hello, I would like to bring your attention on a new post published on the UAWLAP.org Site. Details of the post follow. In Solidarity, Steven M. Stone Automatic Short Week Benefits p. 207 of the Benefits Book Automatic Short Week Benefits are based on your straight-time pay and your hours worked. Your Automatic Short Week Benefits are equal to: 80% of your straight-time pay (including any cost-of-living allowance) for each hour less than 40 not paid for or made available to you during the week. In determining your hours made available for purposes of the Plan, there are two important points to keep in mind: ? If, before a layoff during a week, notice of intent to work overtime has not been given to employees by the Company, overtime that is worked or available during that week but after the layoff and is not included in determining hours paid or made available during the week ? Overtime hours that otherwise would be counted are not counted as hours made available if you are prohibited from working due to written restrictions imposed by your personal physician and agreed to by the plant physician Link to the post: uawlap.org/building-chairpersons-report/automatic-short-week-benefits-p-207-of-the-benefits-book.phpLink to UAWLAP.org: uawlap.org Thank you for the answer Mr. Stone, Tony
