BMWED/Amtrak NEC Agreement

Rule 10 - SENIORITY

Seniority begins at the time the employee's pay starts. An employee assigned to a position of higher class than Trackman will begin to earn seniority in such higher class and lower classes on the same seniority roster in which he has not previously acquired seniority from the date first awarded an advertised position in such higher class. He will retain and accumulate seniority in the lower class from which assigned. An employee entering service in a class above that of Trackman will acquire seniority in that class from the date assigned to an advertised position and will establish seniority as of the same date in all lower classes on the same seniority roster, except as otherwise provided in Rules 89 and 90.
