This statement is totally and completely without merit and factual data. Did you even read the framework agreement? I am not saying that the company will or won't comply with this agreement, because they certainly have the propensity to change, but currently, the interest arbitration clause specifically says the opposite of what you have written. While I agree with you that it will take a while.....probably a long while to get a CBA, there is no current precedent in this environment that would support your claim in which an arbitrator would have the ammunition to support such a decision.
