GENERAL OPERATING STATEMENT

 

In February 2005, Yellow Transportation, in cooperation with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, implemented it first Service Enhancement Change of Operations. With the success of that specific Change of Operations, Yellow Transportation has now begun to position itself as a viable and serious competitor for business in the next day and two day markets.

This proposed Change of Operations will allow Yellow Transportation to continue its program of significantly reducing transit times. In this Change of Operations over 4,100 service lanes will be positively impacted. Yellow Transportation is committed to re-engineering its city pickup and delivery operation, as well as speed up the outbound processing of our customers shipments to meet the outbound cut times required of the next day and two day operations. Without an approved Change of Operations, Yellow Transportation will place the business it currently moves in these lanes at risk. In addition, attracting new and lost business will also be placed at risk along with the jobs associated with handling that business.

In today’s environment, Yellow Transportation is faced with the increasing growth of non-union carriers, freight consolidators and other unionized carriers who have established service schedules in all markets that place Yellow Transportation in a non competitive position.

By re-engineering some segments of our linehaul operation and placing road drivers in select end of line terminals, this Multi-Region Change of Operations will allow Yellow Transportation to link this Change of Operations to its 2005 Service Enhancement Change of Operations to more favorably compete in the next day and two day service markets. In addition Yellow Transportation will be significantly reducing transit times in the three and four day markets, thus ensuring our ability to remain a viable competitor in today's marketplace, as well as providing job growth and job security for all of our employees.

Yellow Transportation will continue its current operation per past Changes of Operations and decisions, agreements in place between Local Unions and the Company, except for the changes as specifically addressed in this document and the transcripts of this hearing.

All employees accepting transfer under this Change of Operations will work under the National Master Freight Agreement, the applicable Supplemental Agreements, work rules, rates of pay and conditions in effect at the terminal/domicile to which they transfer.  No past practices will follow employees to their new locations.

The routes defined in this Change of Operations describe the primary means to move traffic. All dispatches will be in compliance with the National Master Freight Agreement and applicable supplements.

The Company reserves the right to run vias, reversals, meets and turns, and other alternate methods of dispatch to maintain balance, reduce empty miles, utilizing our employees' hours of service so as to provide a high level of service to our consumers.

The Company reserves the right on all meet-turn runs, based on operational needs to run drivers through to destination.

This proposed Change of Operations will not alter any method of road dispatch currently in effect or as a result of any other approved Change of Operations or agreements, unless referenced in this proposed Change of Operations filing.

Although this Change of Operations does not address the use of rail, the Company will maintain it’s current capabilities of using rail as a substitute service to move it’s overflow and imbalances of schedules and traffic, which occur throughout our system. Yellow Transportation has utilized this service as referenced in past Changes of Operations and agreements:

MC-CO-18-9/86; MC-CO-18-7/87; MC-CO –1-6/90; MC-CO-Y1-7/92; MR-ICO-3-8/94; MR-CO-3-8/94: MC-ICO-2-3/97; MR-CO-5-3/97, and other Changes of Operations, which address the Company’s existing use of rail as a substituted service.

These methods of operation are not in conflict with any agreement with the various Local Unions, nor do they run congruent to the provisions of Article 29 Section 1, of the National Master Freight Agreement, as they have been in effect and historically applied prior to April 1, 1994.

Moving expenses in this Service Enhancement Change of Operations will be handled in accordance with the provisions contained in Article 8, Section 6 of the National Master Freight Agreement. However, Yellow Transportation proposes to give the option to employees who transfer under the provisions of this change, an option to receive a lump sum of $3,500.00, less tax liability, in lieu of temporary living expenses.  Should this option be accepted by the Committee, we ask that those employees accepting redomicile under the provisions of Article 8 Section 6c, Moving Expenses, notify the company at the time of the telephone bid, as to their choice of the lump sum or the traditional payment for lodging.

Nothing in this Change of Operations is meant to alter or change the terms and conditions of the National Master Freight Agreement or any supplemental agreements under which the company operates.

In accordance with the provisions of Article 54, Section 14 of the Maryland/DC Supplemental Agreement, in order to establish a competitive service in the lanes described in this Change of Operations, and secure business presently handled by our non-union competition, the Company respectfully requests the Change of Operations Committee to approve its request to designate the Hagerstown, Maryland Service Center as a breakbulk center.

BIDDING

As the gaining and losing numbers in all portions of this proposed Service Enhancement Change of Operations are either even or of a positive nature, the Company proposes, consistent with Article 8 Section 6 of the National Master Freight Agreement, that there be no window period or hold provisions.

In the local cartage/hostling work move opportunity section, employees must be or must be willing to become driver qualified and possess a current CDL prior to accepting a work transfer to Coldwater, Michigan, Cincinnati, Ohio and Hagerstown, Maryland. The training provisions of Article 8 shall apply.

The Company would request a 60 day period prior to rebidding the domiciles in this Service Enhancement Change of Operations in order to review changes in daily trips between origin and destination.

The company will utilize a telephone bid procedure, utilizing master seniority lists at losing domiciles. The sign-up sheets will be posted at losing domiciles Thursday, January 25, 2007 and remain posted until 11:59 P.M. Thursday February 1, 2007. The telephone bid will take place on Monday, February 5, 2007 at 8:00 A.M. CST.

The company seeks to implement the Change of Operations on Sunday, February 25, 2007
