Say your class' first guy finished ioe on Jan. 15th. Your whole class then would get their raise the following Jan 1st for the entire month of January. THIS was our longevity date. Delta is now trying to say that it is the 15th, and keep you on the former payrates for an extra 15 days.
Is this grievance worthy? I've talked to payroll and they're not budging. I'm going to do a little more research (don't have the old nwa contract with me on a trip) and then call contract admin if we still have that.
Any other fnwa guys dealt with this? It's around $500 difference this year jumping from 2nd to 3rd year pay.
Are you sure they are keeping you on the old rate until the 15th or are they just saying you wont see the money till the 15th. That is when we get our flight pay. The check on the first is just an advance and is the same for everyone based on YOS.
