On Wednesday’s All Employee Call on Commercial Driver’s Licenses (CDL), a question was asked whether employees in departments other than the Gas and Electric T&D Departments currently requiring a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) would also be entitled to have the $600 CDL premium imbedded in their base wage rate. The Company told the caller that the intent was that all employees who hold a CDL and use it in connection with their job would be included.
After the call, the Company contacted the IBEW to discuss this and the parties will be meeting early next week to finalize the agreement to apply the CDLA premium to all employees who hold a CDL and use it in connection with their job duties.
More information will become available when the Company and Union have finalized the details of this agreement.
