Don't Want an Unpaid Vacation? Get Written Up!
In the latest blatant human rights violation against the poor Part-Time CTA workers, our lowdown employer has taken to forcing them to take unpaid vacations. Customer Service Assistants (CSA), Flagmen (FTTF) and possibly more, have contractual rights to pick an unpaid vacation. These are rights. It is not mandated! Now, under the threat of punishment, the CTA mismanagement is basically forcing them to take 1-2 week(s) off work without pay. Some do not want to miss pay for this fake vacation. Punishing them for not picking it is totally wrong! Below is a Class Action Grievance I submitted. Hopefully, it won't be trashed at the next Executioner Board Meeting. It appears that they cut out the sources I cited. These so-called union officials I work with are totally pro-CTA mismanagement. So I never know what to expect.
