It's just a WAG, but I'm working on combining vanilla AND chocolate on the same cone.
The Jetblue ALPA policy manual disagrees.
“the MEC will seek membership ratification of other proposed agreements or Letters of Agreement
which modify contractual pay or that significantly modify work rules.”
My pay rate, my guarantee, my 2% COLA bump, and my annual pay scale step increase are all contractual pay items and cannot be unilaterally changed by the MEC without membership vote without violating the jetblue alpa policy manual. They would be opening themselves up to recall and potential lawsuits, not to mention causing a bunch of ****ed off members voting to decertify ALPA and vote in a different union if that happened. The 14 voting members don’t have that power, shouldn’t have that power, and that is why it is in black and white in their own policy manual that they can’t do that.
