The GCA was able to work an agreement with the carrier to increase the uniform allotment, also we can now mix yard and passenger uniforms in the same year.

“Annual Uniform Allowance is $660.00 with year-ending 11/30/26. An employee is allowed to place only one order per year. If an employee chooses not to spend the whole $660.00, they will lose the balance for the year. An employee may order any combination of conductor and yard uniform items in the same year and may mix and match items within one order. Newly hired conductors receive a complete conductor uniform set instead of an annual allowance. For more information, please read Uniform Allowance.”

Uniforms can be ordered online now for 2026 by using CONDUCTOR UNIFORMS – NJT UNIFORMS

There is a misprint on the uniform website, the allowance has not been increased to $1000.00.

The GCA is still in negotiations with the carrier for a much-needed increase, but it is not official, please wait until there is official notification from the organization (SMART-TD Local 60) before placing an order 

Thank you   

With the end of the year coming up I just wanted to remind you of some of the best practices for filling out the cash-in request timecards. If these guidelines are followed, then it would help us out a lot in getting all of these payments processed as quickly and accurately as possible:

1) Requests should be for only type of PTO (vacation, personal, or sick) cash-in per timecard submitted

2) Timecard comments should state to pay remaining balance of the PTO type for 2025 instead of the specific amount (e.g. “Pay remaining 2025 vacation balance” or “Pay all unused 2025 personal days”)

3) There is no need for anyone to submit a separate timecard for each individual day that is being cashed in (e.g. a 32-hour vacation cash-in should be submitted on one request instead of four separate requests)

4) Since we are now using electronic timecards there should not be a need for anyone to submit duplicate timecards. They can email me or the verification department with the request ID# and we can check the status of the request.

If anyone has any questions regarding these guidelines, please let me know.

Thanks, 

Mark Falanga

I am writing to inform you that the pay shortage experienced last week was due to an I.T. error. Unfortunately, the cause of the shortage was not identified until this past Friday, and as a result, the same issue will affect this week’s payment as well.

The plan is to provide a file for Payroll to process the adjustments and for these corrections to be reflected in next week’s pay cycle (8/28–9/03), and employees will be made whole on the check dated 9/11.

Everyone will be fully compensated in the next payment cycle. We are unable to request manual payments because the amount owed is less than eight hours of pay.

Rail E-Claims and MATS will down tonight August 26th, from 8:00pm to 10:00pm. This is regularly scheduled maintenance from the Integrify vendor. Employees will not be able to submit timecards during that brief window tonight.
