Is that right?
General Implementation Appendix and Timeline
2006 FedEx Pilot Collective Bargaining Agreement
This appendix sets out the timeline upon which each of the changes in the Tentative Agreement will be implemented following ratification. Items which are specifically referenced in the contract as having a later implementation date are not repeated in this appendix and will be implemented on the date specified in the Agreement. In the main table, all dates indicate that the particular provision will be implemented not later than the date stated. In the programming sub-appendices for work rules, (Sections 4, 12 and 25), and retirement and insurance (Sections 27 and 28), two dates are indicated—a target date, by which the Company intends to implement each particular change, and a delivery date, beyond which the Company would be in violation of the Agreement if it has not implemented the change. Under the letter of agreement entitled, “Implementation and Transition,” the parties may, by mutual agreement, alter the timelines set forth in this appendix to achieve a smooth transition into the new Agreement.
