Weekend updates for PVL & RVL

October 30, 2015 By

An update from GC Burkert

PVL will close after last train tonight, crews will be bused to Hoboken crew base. If crews have middle trips on another line they will make them, if not they will stay in crew base to protect in case the put line back in service.

RVL, crews will sign up for the weekend in Westfield. All paperwork will be there as if it were a terminal. I agreed to a temporary side letter, crews will get gas miles from Raritan to Westfield and (1) hour RT DH per day. There will be additional crews ordered from the extra list to help . Regular crews will not be making extra trips.

Using C3RS and your receipt

October 27, 2015 By

When you receive notice that a hearing and investigation is scheduled for an incident that you also reported to C3RS, be advised of the following:

When NJT initiates an investigation of an unsafe event or condition and an employee(s) indicates that the event or condition has been reported in accordance with the C3RS/IMOU, the time limits for pursuing discipline will be put in abeyance if necessary, pending a confirmation receipt from NASA.

When a receipt is available for review (NASA sends it via US Mail), YOU must forward it to our designated C3RS railroad manager, Rich Green Jr. (Fax: (201) 649-1987, email: rmgreen1@njtransit.com). When the designated C3RS railroad manager determines that the receipt is applicable to the event, the investigation will be closed.

IMPORTANT: Do not throw away your receipt from NASA. A replacement receipt will not be available. Keep a copy of this receipt for your records.

As always, if you have any questions regarding this matter, email me at jkehoe@utulocal60.com or see a Local 60 representative.

Conductor Training Program

October 9, 2015 By

I want to extend my sincere thanks to both Ranessa Greene and Pat Belardo for accepting the task of being the new trainers for the conductor program. They have a long and exemplary record working as conductors. Their real life experience will only help explain in greater detail what our job responsibilities are on a daily basis. The current students in these classes are certainly getting top notch teachers of our craft. Ranessa and Pat will begin this assignment on Monday 10/12/15. There will be a new class starting before the end of 2015. The students that had difficulty in either of the first two classes will be given the opportunity to resume their training in this new class.  I have complete faith in Pat and Ranessa’s abilities. I encourage all Members to assist them in the training of the new members of our “Local 60 family”.

Fraternally,

Stephen J. Burkert

General Chairman
