Whenever they grant a raise it triggers an 18 month look back to see if 30% have received raises. They certainly will meet that threshold.
The question will be whether a previously agreed to contractual increase constitutes "granting an across the board increase".
I see what you are saying and agree with you. The company granted the raise when they signed the contract. I think in this case we should file on 1 APR if the company does not grant the raise. I am somewhat surprised the company did not offer the Dec raise to the dispatchers in return for giving up the Apr raises.
