This Friday, November 24, is the constitutional deadline for challenges to either the competitive bidding date or date of birth that were included on your Seniority Verification Letter (SVL). There are instructions on the SVL informing you of how to send information if you believe either date is incorrect.
If you did not receive your SVL, you may request that a duplicate be sent to you by email. To do so, send your request to the following email address: seniority@afacwa.org. Your request must include your Name, Employee Number, Council/Base, and your Email Address.
During January 2018, the Seniority Merger Integration Committee (SMIC) will meet in Washington DC at the AFA International Office. At this week-long meeting, the plan is to complete the research, resolve any incorrect dates, certify each seniority list, determine the training adjustment to apply to AS seniority dates, determine the same-day tie-breaker, and finally, merge the two seniority lists into a single seniority list. Additionally, the SMIC will draft a document for the entire membership to explain the details of the process and answer questions that have been received from various members.
In Solidarity,
Your Seniority Merger Integration Committee – Sandra Morrow (AS), Rolando Teran (VX), Lynne Voigtsberger (VX) and Marie Maxwell (AS)
