Too bad that the MEC already agreed to the points system years ago. We even went through the last negotiations without addressing it. The MEC started a grievance when the points system first came out. Then they agreed to the final points system, but the specifics were not to be disseminated.
So, there won't be any grievance unless the company strays from the agreed upon points system.
